I'm not a fan of PD to begin with, but as I said in my post the other day, he didn't figure to run well on the grass at all. A horse needs to have a quick turn of foot to compete on the grass. PD doesn't have a quick turn of foot. On a turf course like Del Mar or Hollywood, they will often run the last 1/8th of a mile in :11 or so. PD just can't come home like that.
