Actually, Matto Mondo won the classic Polla de Potrillos (G1-Ch) as a 3yo down in Chile, over 1700m (8.5f). He won a G1 and a G3 at two, in fact, may have been champion 2yo down there. He was off for a year while his new owners waited for him to grow up so that the 6 months difference in age would not be a factor. He finally seems to be finding his form again, after 4 races where his new barn was trying to get to know him. (No, he didn't take to the hill or blinkers.)
