Is it me or does Frosted just look way more of a battle tank than his competition. Seems like the lower half of his body is shaped differently than others.

Is it me?

She's a speed and the pace did collapse. She probably sits off and finishes. You know, the way Lightstream should have.

I think its between him and Dortmund. Andy seemed to get a lot of **** on twitter, because he said Frosted is ahead of Chrome for HOY. I totally agree. The Met-Whitney double is huge. Its historic. He has to be the front runner as of now.

this discussion is premature and will likely sort itself out but generally I have to weigh the head to head in cases like this.

Frosted does seem like the more talented horse though, not that in itself means much.

Joey while Frosted has been a monster his last two races Chrome still should be ranked at top. He beat both the horses you mentioned already this year. Until they beat him he is still on top. I still don't see either beating him in the mile and a quarter classic.

I disagree, I just typed out a long response on my cell got a call and lost it. I'll do it later.
