Default Citation's 3yo season



Great season. Won 19 out of 20 starts. Lone defeat was a 2nd place finish going 6 furlongs in the mud.

The final 10 starts of Count Fleet's career...




Not the deepest crop to say the least -- but he certainly pummeled them.

Just think how awesome they would have been with Lasix.

Probably would have brought some of their competition closer to them.

Coaltown might have had Citation's number.

Seattle Slew's 3yo season:





Beyer on Slew:




On the Ragozin Sheets ... Seattle Slew was Giacomo like slow during his entire 3yo season. Speed horses are usually faster on Beyer style numbers and this was no exception.

Assault won a race at odds of 70-to-1 as a 2-year-old.





He was never a favorite in his career until the Preakness Stakes -- which he won.

After winning the Derby by 8 lengths and the Preakness -- he was NOT favored to win the Belmont.

Secretariat's 3yo season:



A couple of sub-par defeats ... but he was ruthlessly fast during the entire triple crown series...and he loved turf.
