Or do you believe that the big price tag alone makes that one a must use?
Brock worked an unblinkered :10 and 3/5 at the Fasig-Tipton February sale and looked very smooth doing it, though I'll defer to Doug regarding the move because he watches way more of them than I do.

As far as Heisman, the dam's first foal broke her maiden by almost five lengths on the inner track and AGS broke his maiden, like Doug said, in a scintillating Polytrack win at Turfway. I wouldn't put it bast Heisman or Brock to be very strong at first asking while ultimately having the most success they can going long.
