Horse certainly showed some agility, willingness to take dirt, travel up the rail, and run between horses.
The age-old conundrum. Are slow races with tons of trouble just slow races or a harbinger of a good horse that can run faster with a reasonable trip? With Baffert getting his stock back soon and able to compete at SPA this year the competition is about to be reinvigorated.
