Good 2YO, but I don't see him being all that much down the road... however Tabor could probably use him as a stud prospect if it doesn't work out.

Actually they sold too soon. He is going to get his grade 1 win tomorrow. I suspect Pletcher had no choice here. If Tabor wants to buy from him and his father, he has to sell. I would imagine Tabor probably leaned heavily on Pletcher this week for running his horse at Keeneland and Todd keeping the horse he owned for the Champagne. Now had he won Tabor probably would not have complained, but Circular Quay needs to be Pletcher's Number 1 Priority. Tabor not only owns Circular Quay but his wife is the breeder. That loss probably did not sit well with him. It probably was Tabor's decision to run on the poly too, but the loss could not have made him happy.
