ATW will be 10 in 2007 and you're right, if he can walk into the gate on the 13th, he'll win. Sir Shackleton had to set a 7f track record to beat him in last year's Super Stakes (7f) a few weeks after his victory in the Pelican. He was going for the Pelican/Super double that he won in 2005 and came up short.

Ronnie Allen usually puts him away after the meet and brings him back the following year because the horse absolutely loves Tampa's surface and doesn't really run well anywhere else. The work tab will tell us shortly if he's going to go for his 4th Pelican win in a row.

Here we go:
