The growth and maturity spurts in the late teenagers will be more dramatic and and applicable than for the College kids who are much closer to ending their growing.
The difference between now and the end of the year has the opportunity to strongly impact the three year olds much more than the older horses. Especially the ones who are 5 and up.

How is going through a growth and maturity spurt the same as having an overall advantage?
It's like saying an 18-year-old who started lifting weights three years ago and is seeing big gains can be as physically strong or impressive as a 22-year-old who has been lifting for 7 years. Except in rare cases of genetic freaks (or steroids), if the work put in and physical potential are equal, they can't.
