As I said, I can't remember what the issue was.
I actually cashed a nice bet on him first-time out. I would have bet even more except for the fact that it's tough to win first out at 7 furlongs and the trainer's numbers were not great with first-timers. I just wasn't that confident that he was going to be ready that day. In addition, there was another first-timer in there of Dale Roman's that I liked, and I didn't want to lose over $1,000 on the race. So I bet around $250 WP on each of them. I think the Roman's horse ended up running 4th.
