Let's assume Afleet Alex will not contest this year's BC Classic. IMO, we will not see AA again as a 3YO.
If Flower Alley wins BC Classic, is he Horse of the Year? If he is, he must also be awarded 3YO championship. If he is not, is FA or AA top 3YO?.
If the BC Classic is NOT won by a 3YO, and LITF wins the BC Sprint, LITF is obviously Eclipse Award winning sprinter, but is he also 3YO champion? Is he Horse of the Year? I envision the same sort of controversy we had when Favorite Trick was named Horse of the Year based on his undefeated 2YO season.
Is it possible LITF's people won't put up 90K and will skip BC Sprint-- maybe go to Fall Highweight or Cigar Mile? If he skips BC and wins one of these other races can he be champion sprinter or 3YO? Can he be Horse of the Year without winning the BC Sprint if he defeats older animals in a graded race later in the year?
