I really haven't been paying much attention to the 2-year-olds this year. I like the sounds of the Street Boss colt, Holy Boss. :-)

Daredevil looks like a good one and gets an off track again. He's a 1/2 to BC Mile winner Albertus Maximus so he should like the distance.
El Kabeir is out of an unraced 1/2 sister to the fast colt Too Much Bling.
Upstart is a NY bred that may not repeat his last?
Holy Boss has some good off track breeding and his rider comes in from Ky to ride today and tomorrow for Asmussen?

Here's the finish:
Daredevil romps again
Upstart runs well to get 2nd
The Truth or Else third
El Kabeir was a tiring 4th
