Why Horse Should Win: Demi's number of HOTY wins does NOT reflect how consistent and how rapidly this horse has improved from last season. With a majority of her races all being HOTY, Demi's true heart and drive allowed her to do exceptionally well against top sprinter horses, including Demonic Desires and Tears Of An Angel, to name a few. Her consistency was enough to land her a second place in the battle which was the BC F&M Turf Sprint. This mare should win because while her record holds only a few wins, it shows that she was an extremely tough competitor this season, but with a bad case of seconditis!

Why Horse Should Win: Coming off of what was her worst season, Tears Of An Angel came back this year and set the bar high. She came back to win eleven races, nine of them horse of the year races and ran against the best horses this site has to offer. She outran the likes of Demonic Desires, Silver Serendipity, Turf Triple Sprinter Crown Winner Call Me Crooked, Sophie's Voice and Aquatic Addiction. On top of that this season, she won nine HOTY races and achieved a 50% winning percentage and came back to defend her title as the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf Sprint champion.

Why Horse Should Win: A Turf Triple Sprinter Crown Winner, and a winner of over half her starts this season it doesn't get much better than this. Crook took every challenge thrown at her this season and did her very best in every race she ran. She outran the best of her crop to claim the Turf Triple Sprinter Crown, and she also notched a win against older, experienced horses. She also came in second in the Breeders' Cup to a very classy horse. Along with that she never once placed out of the money this season, and the worst she placed all season was third, once in twenty starts. I think Crook should definitely be apart of the conversation when considering who should win this award.
