Covelj,
I can make a case for Ruler on Ice, based on his numbers, but he doesn\'t pass the \"eye test\" for me, as a win candidate. He ran on VERY LATE in his race at Parx and was mediocre in the Haskell/Travers this Summer.
Additionally, I think this year\'s 3-year olds that were in the Triple Crown races were WELL BELOW AVERAGE. I have believed this for a while and Stay Thirsty\'s performance against Flat Out was the \"final straw\" for me. I don\'t want any of them.
That said, Uncle Moe and To Honor and Serve weren\'t part of that and to me are more formidable.
Jim
