I'm not trying to buy into the debate Ron, but are you on the Enable train? If so is an Arc, September Stakes and a Breeder's Cup Turf, enough to counter Roaring Lion's Dante, Eclipse, International Stakes, Irish Champion Stakes and a Queen Elizabeth Stakes wins?

Just wondering.

Without wishing to belittle a horse's performances Cyc (something I don't like doing) I just wonder how a horse who was 5th in the Guineas to Saxon Warrior and then beats that horse twice by a nk in 2 of the races you mention and finishes last of 14 at the Breeders Cup can warrant Horse of the Year.

And yes, I do think Enable's achievement of coming back from injury to win the Arc following a troubled preparation and then winning the breeders Cup does deserve HOTY.

Still, I know I'm biased but really, we must be struggling when a horse with that form gets it.
