Wise Dan – All the big races are now over, and for the second year in a row Wise Dan looks like he’ll be Horse of the Year. 2. Mucho Macho Man – The Classic winner will have a shot at Older Male of the Year, but didn’t quite do enough to win Horse of the Year. 3. Game On Dude – Ran pretty well in the Clark…will look for another big year in 2014. 4. Cross Traffic – It’s too bad he got injured as I think he was on his way to huge things. 5. Fort Larned – What a strange year for the 2012 Classic winner. Still ran well in this years version. Sleeper: Declaration of War – He’s plenty good, but will we see him back in America once again? Older Females 1. Royal Delta – She wins this by default, but the champ is probably done. The division was a bit weak this year, but the infusion of good three-year olds will boost it next year. 2. Tiz Miz Sue – Absolutely sickening that she had to be retired. Was running better than ever. 3. Authenticity – Solid run in the Distaff, but never really threatened to win. 4. Joyful Victory – Never was quite good enough to beat the top-notch horses, but still a solid horse. 5. On Fire Baby – Still have hopes that she’ll come back firing Sleeper: My Miss Aurelia – Has been transferred to Todd Pletcher. Interesting move, will it pay off? 3 Year Old Males 1. Will Take Charge – No doubt about it now! Will Take Charge is your Three Year Old Horse of the Year. 2. Palace Malice – He sort of fell off towards the end of this season, but still was respectable. Could be a nice colt at age four. 3. Orb – Never could recapture his Kentucky Derby form. 4. Oxbow – The injury knocked him down a little, but he had a great first half of the year. 5. Goldencents – Bounced all the way back to California in the Cigar Mile. Still a nice prospect. Sleeper: Normandy Invasion – Lets see if this colt comes back running at age 4… 3 Year Old Females 1. Beholder – She won the Distaff which evened the score with Princess of Sylmar 2. Princess of Sylmar – Absolutely hate ranking her second, but I think you have to do so. 3. Close Hatches – Her late season heroics are enough to move her up the third. 4. Midnight Lucky – Unfortunately she will miss the rest of the year, which will cause her to drop some. 5. Fiftyshadesofhay – Respectable horse, but a cut below this groups best. Sleeper: Dreaming of Julia – What ever happened to her?? Sprinters 1. Secret Circle – Super impressive in his huge comeback! Tops a weak division. 2. Groupie Doll – Pretty nice effort in the Cigar Mile even though she finished fourth. Would have ranked first if she had one. 3. Justin Phillip – Was nothing but solid this year. The old pro retires with nothing to be ashamed about. 4. Points Offthebench – Such a sad story, but he was so good this year. 5. Gentleman’s Bet – Ran hard in every race, and always finished respectable. Sleeper: Sahara Sky – Looked to be a monster before the injury. 2 Year Old Males 1. New Year’s Day – I wasn’t blown away by anyone over the weekend, so I think New Year’s Day has the top spot for now. 2. Havana – Thought he was best in the Juvenile. 3. Honor Code – With the terribly slow pace it was hard to tell much from the Remsen. Did enough to warrant respect, but not the top spot. 4. Strong Mandate – Tough post killed him in the Juvenile. Will freshen up for a big three-year old campaign at Oaklawn. 5. Cairo Prince – Definitely thought he had the Remsen won, but was out-gamed by Honor Code. Sleeper: Gold Hawk – Was really impressed with this one’s debut! Could be an up and coming star. 2 Year Old Females 1. She’s A Tiger – Think she’s distance challenged, but has accomplished a lot. 2. Sweet Reason – Always seems to have an excuse, but has been right there in every race. 3. Ria Antonia – Not sold on her yet, needed a DQ to win the Juvenile fillies. 4. Rosalind – Thought she was best in the Juvenile Fillies… 5. Stopchargingmaria – Wins yet again! Even though nobody has been overly impressed by her, wins are all that matters. Sleeper: Unbridled Forever – I’ll buy the hype for now…
