I loved his burst once he got clear...remember, he is a baby and was clearly running greenly on the inside and with the dirt hitting him....his head was straight up in the air and he was moving very awkwardly before Johnny V got him out and let him mark that other horse...once he did it was over...

His ability and upside is crazy....I'm not crazy by the way he moves his left front anfd I hope is doesn't cause soundness issues down the road because he is a big horse, but I really firmly believe that he is the most talented juvenile in the country right now....and yes, that means that he is better than Circular Quay...As a matter of fact, I was in Ocala earlier this week and I heard from many sources around there that the barn believes he is by far their best 2YO, but then again, I have heaqrd and thought that for months now ever since he outworked Minefield twice at CD in the weeks leading up to the Derby....this horse is a runner and his narrow win will only help his price in the Hopeful because he WILL win that race too...

Additionally, if he can prove to negotiate 1 1/16 miles (which, I admit, is a big question mark to me despite his long stride), then he is your BC Juvy winner IMO......we'll see...a lot of racing to be done before that race but I know he is the goods....anybody that thinks his narrow win over a maiden was a poor effort doesn't understand how to watch a race IMO.....he was running green and in tight, cumbersome spots for half of a mile before getting clear.....remember, these are babies and they have much to learn on the experience front.....
