No doubt as far as suden acceleration and obtaining top speed he had to be the best I have seen. Most of the deep closers just roll into there top closing speed but he was the true push button speed horse. Two or three strides and he was there. Amazing turn of foot. The horse in training now that shows this push button trait is Surf Cat. If they would just show him off around the country. We may never realy be able to appreciate this horse f they want venture out of Cal.
