Most people will probably disagree with me but I honestly think it's a close call. If Bernardini would have won yesterday, then he would have been a slam-dunk to win top 3 year old, and rightfully so. But with his loss yesterday, I think people will start to think that his last few wins were not quite as good as they appeared to be. The fractions were really slow in those races and he got dream trips. The fields were small and not particularly strong. Don't get me wrong, I still think Bernardini is a terrific horse, but he may not be quite the freak that some of us thought he was.
Anyway, I think it's a close call between Bernie and Barbaro for top 3 year old. I think that Bernie will probably win it but I don't think it's a slam dunk.
