Not a hard one .... but .....

Name this future Gr 1 winner ....

Those horses don't help.

We're looking at an Indian Charlie or Free House brother then. Again, before either ran themselves, so its a lot tougher. Soviet Sojourn ran in the early '90s, so it's unlikely to be Indian Charlie then.

I guess it could be even a Golden Act or Jaklin Klugman half brother.

Jaklin Klugman is the half brother.

The name of the horse was All Slewped Up. Greenman trained, Klugman owned. I don't think he ever even worked out again.

Do you remember a horse named Shinnecock Hills from the early 90s? A Skywalker that won very impressively his first two out?

I'm actually not sharp with recent horses but that one is going to be Afleet Alex unless you're pulling a fast one.

Yep, the name anyways. Wasn't that a 505 Farms horse possibly?

Yeah - it's AA.

Rose actually cost him the 2yo championship with an absolutely terrible ride in the BC Juvie.

I think he was. I always wondered what happened to him. I found out years later he ended up running for a low tag at I believe MNR, maybe two years later.

He was a really nice colt.

Bruho also, he ended up running for something like 2500.

Bruho used to lug out sharply in some of his races. In one race I think he might have even dumped the jock inside the 1/16th pole.

I've always had a fondness for horses that dump their jock.

Apparently, he did it more than once.

Here's an article from the LA Times:

thanks for the link. racing needs someone like jim murray writing again.

that one i knew, but as drugs said, it was an easy one!

So you don't think yanking the horse to the outside coming out of the first turn and then attempting to sustain a drive for about 6f was the best strategy?
Rose's lack of patience on the horse probably cost him the Triple Crown as well as the BCJ.

IMO the CD track cost him the triple crown. Unfortunately, there was about a 200 yard long stretch on the inside around the turn and the start of the stretch where EVERY horse that ran through there looked like they were running in quicksand. I was sitting right there and didn't believe my eyes until I rewatched all the tape from the day. For example Madcap Escapade was (rightfully) 1/5 in the 7F stake, starts her move and looks like she's going to blow by then just stops all her momentum. AA went over the same spot and lost all momentum as well- he managed to rerally and even stick his nose in front before Giacomo and Closing Argument snuck by on the outside.

I don't think Rose did anything wrong. He had the horse in the right spot given that insane pace.
