He is bred to go 10f, has good speed out of the gate, and if they don't push him through the first half quickly....he just might be there at the end. I don't think you can toss Hard Spun for that reason.
All of the other "speed" horses in the race this year would need to strap a motor to their ass to get 10f.
Had to get to work...what can I say???

Oh, by the way...which was the "greater" horse from that race in your signature?
