Curious how people are looking at these two, Frosted and Upstart. Both were fast, very fast at 2.
Upstart debuts at 3 and breaks through his 2 yr old top with a big number, then runs an off race, then comes back and pairs a big number in the FL Derby. Now he's had 5 weeks since the number he's already reacted to.
Frosted, meanwhile, ran an off race in his 3 year old debut, backed up again in the FOY, but then broke through with a big number in the Wood. Now he comes in on 4 weeks.
Both have only improved roughly 2 pts from their 2 yr old top. And If either of them pairs they are right there. But aside from all the noise, antibiotics, surgery, etc. Strictly from their sheet, which one has the better pattern and why?
