Caleb's Posse enters the Horse of the Year debate

I normally stay out of these kind of discussions but listening and reading all the stuff on who should be the horse of the year based on all the what ifs and what might have been's, it is clear to me that Caleb's Posse has the clear cut edge on the honors.

His record has had its up and downs for sure, but he has won four graded events at four different distances (mile, two sprints and a mile and sixteenth), all his wins have had Beyer's over 100 and took down top horses in each event. Those victories have come at three different tracks, and has shown versatility and the ability to win the big ones.

While not a dominating horse, but one that has shown determination to come back and win, no matter the distance, grade level or track. That makes him Horse of the Year in my book.
