Is it possible to see the merit ratings of the 3 year olds somewhere? Or are they still busy updating that?

Thanks Titch!

I was wondering how high the merit ratings of the top "2-year olds" were, like Willow Magic, Forest Indigo and Kocha. They Must go sky high.

I will be more interested to see what Along Came Polly's merit rating is.......imo will be merit rated too high and hopefully the connections dont find it too hard to find races for these up and coming 3 yr olds now

That is actually what I was thinking as well. How hard will it be to place these horses in races? Or do you just aim for all the big races period...

Nic the good 3 year olds very seldom come out into open company until the May / June next year at the earliest. With the likes of the Dingaans, Cape Guineas and Derby then the Triple Crown and KZN 3 year old features, you often like this July first see a 3 year old in open company in the July.

your horse has already raced and won in open company so I doubt that you would battle to find races for him - Your trainer has placed in major races with young horses so I'd love to have your problems:)-D

i doubt we have seen the better 3yr olds in action yet.in the next 2 months plenty will make their debuts and im sure a champion or 2 will emerge and lets not forget the ramsden trained horse rumoured to be better than variety club at the same stage of their careers.time will tell but imo the lot we have seen thus far dont look like champion material to me.
