Interesting that Stevens think Game Winner is likely to jump up the most.

My view has been that you can make a reasonable case he was better than Omaha Beach in the Rebel and better than Roadster in the SA Derby when you consider ground loss and trip. But you can also make a case that after being the best 2yo, the best 3yos have been catching up and could pass him.

If he jumps up a solid notch in the Derby, he's going to be very tough unless he's hung out 3-4 wide both turns again and someone outrips him.
