Last season, I mentioned that our racing string had depth of talent. That was true as evidenced by over 60% of our races having PSR's above 90 and 66% of all entries hitting the board.
By making some key acquisitions late last year, and picking up a proven winner during the auction, I suspect that we have even a deeper amount of talent this season, in spite of the retirements of Nova and Big Easy.
Just glancing down the roster, I'd say that we have at least 5 horses that are a threat to win any race they enter. They are Affirm Gal, Union Jack, Confederation, Kid Flash, and Stowaway.
Additionally, there are another 4 horses who have excellent ability and can win at least a couple races each if appropriately placed. They are Doomsday, King of the Sea, Seven Memory, and Big Slick.
Sitio Estratigico and Candle of Life round out the list of veteran racers. They are both capable of winning at least one race each in 2010.
Throw in my talented, but late-maturing 3yo Mister Fantastic and a nice group of 2yo's headed by War Machine's daughter Rogue, and you can see why I am optimistic.
