Just a quick point but War Pass had almost exactly the same time as Street Sense did last year. And aren't the fillies often a tad faster than the boys in the juvenile races? Seems to happen a little before they mature but this time War Pass was actually ahead of Indian Blessing. I'd say even if they're front runners you've still got some talented individuals doing the winning and they'll probably have to go into next year before they get any respect for being just that good. Assuming of course they mature.
All that said, I wonder about Hard Spun. He's got the shoes and the running style if there IS a bias...that outside position though..
