    Question Top 2yo's Thus Far

    As we head towards the Breeders Crown, I am interested to hear from others on who they feel are the best 2yo's that we've seen on Aussie race tracks so far....

    My Top 5 Colts:
    1. Fly Like An Eagle - Superstar in the making, should be undefeated!!
    2. Restrepo - Only injury has stopped this bloke pushing FLAE to the limit
    3. Soho Valencia - Super consistent and very tough
    4. Mr Nickel - His APG wins means he has to be included
    5. Scandalman - I really like this bloke, shame he is not entered for the Crown

    Notable mentions to Magic Bliss, Theartofdelusion & Major Catastrophe

    My Top 5 Fillies:
    1. Shake it Mama - Freak who will only get better with time
    2. Rosa Mach - Super little trier
    3. Sensational Gabby - All you can do is win and she is yet to be beaten
    4. Louvre - Can't draw a gate
    5. La Machane - A filly on the up

    Notable mentions to The Archduchess & Cha Ching Chaching.

    Hi Zipper

    I agree with almost all your selections. In the colts, I would definitely add in Western Cullen. I think he will race in Perth before coming over for the Crown.

    With fillies, I know she won the APG, but I have been disappointed with Rosa Mach's recent starts. Id definitely have a few others ahead of her leading into the Crown

    Restrepo had it over all the 2yo colts & geldings that I've seen before or since this season & he had it by wide open lengths too...until he got injured.
    Sensational Gabby would smack all of the 2yo fillies and the majority of the 2yo colts & geldings that I've seen this season.

    Well well well..... I am a terrible judge going off last nights results.

    La Machane is outstanding, although I still think we haven't seen anywhere near the best of Shake It Mama.

    Soho Valencia was brilliant, very tough win. Not sure what went wrong with The Eagle, he seemed to get fired up and over race way to easily???

    If he races truly next week it will be a much different result!!

    Wasn't Johnny a little hard to catch / difficult in general as a young horse... I read that somewhere that is where his name come from. Hopefully with this similar family trait that have similar abilities - would be nice!

    Johnnie was always hard to catch. You should have tired driving him when we were breaking him in. Would take off at the drop of a hat but it was fun. We called him Johnnie from the start then when john bought him he would walk into his yard saying be good johnnie, so that is how he got his name. Have now got both 2 yr olds back in work so hopefully they will be ready to race as 3 yr olds.

    I always love a good story behind a name
