Where is Comedereo running?

He had a little bit of trouble (cuts and minor injuries) in that Charles Town exhibition back in June and Stidham wanted to give him until the Amsterdam. He's working steadily and should be ready to roll by then.

Probably the first legitimate chance he'll have at getting a GI winner as well.

How patient should we be? How many good Mineshafts has Zito pissed through? His first few crops sucked, plain and simple and he is not even the best son of Ap Indy at stud right now. No G1 winners yet, 4 crops. Are we waiting for 8th crop magic?

He actually throws some real fast horses speaking in terms of Thorograph, but it seems like durability is an issue with them. You see two races then a 200 day layoff pretty regularly.

What about Fly Down?

He's a perfect 3-0 lifetime in head-to-head meetings with First Dude. First Dude is a monster don't ya know.

Casino Drive for one. Him and Big Brown's health allowed the disgrace that is Da Tara to win the Belmont in a cakewalk.

Sadly enough Casino Drive might be his best.

Redding Collery just beat Awesome Gem by like 7 last out and it was 7 lengths more to 3rd.

He and Discreetly Mine are at least somewhat sound ... Casino Drive was like Ironman Jon with a better pedigree and bigger following.

Another from Japan. He has a record of 6 wins, 4 seconds, 3 thirds from 16 starts.

They are a lot more sound than Unbridled Song and the unlimited cripples he continues to throw putting human lives at risk.

He's the leading 4th crop sire and is having a fantastic year. I was definitely disappointed in his start, but he's got some very good horses out there. So what if he's not the best son of AP Indy? That doesn't mean he's not any good.........
