The pacesetter was winless in two starts at Canterbury Park, Arizona bred exiting a 5th place finish at Turf Paradise. Hardly the kind of pace setter who could prove an elusive target.

The second place finisher had a pace setup last time, and could only manage 3rd in a good entry level alw race. Was blown off the track by Shared Belief, in a sprint race, the start before that.

The third place finisher had an unspectacular maiden win, and only managed to beat a single horse in his next two starts.

The final time appears very impressive anyway. But until I see a figure, it's a lot of hype for a horse who didn't beat a whole lot.
But, it's Bob.
