Haven't revisited it in the video archives, but on paper, his San Diego run at Del Mar might need to be reviewed. He came from just off the pace to make the lead into the stretch before wilting into 5th. I'd imagine this is where Frankel gave up on him as far as being a route horse, but in retrospect, now knowing some of the nuances between these synthetic surfaces, I wonder if this wasn't a "hidden" good race. I assume you followed the Del Mar meet somewhat closely, what's your opinion of that effort in hindsight (the point being the Pacific Classic is likely a main target for this horse this summer)?
