Ok Guys you have a descent discussion going on here. But the big thing you guys are still overlooking is tha CQ of his dams Side has Strickly A Sprinters Pedigree And that is the way he ran in the lanes End.
No way Could I bet on this Horse in the Juvenille.
For those of you who did not see my post BEFORE the Lanes End on CQ here it is



OK Guys CQ will be somewhere in the line of 4/5 or less. LEt me tell you a couple of reasons why I think CQ is a bet Against.

A. I have seen to many young horses over the years that have a tremendous turn of foot Sprinting only to not show that same turn of foot around 2 turns and CQ kind of reminds me of that type of horse.

B. I am not as sold as some of you guys who think CQ has a pedigree that will stretch out. And heres why 1st off CQ is out of Circle of LIfe who made 10 Lifetime Starts with a record of 10---3-1-2 of those 10 starts 4 were made running a route of ground her record in those races were 4----0-0-2 and Sprinting COL had a record of 5----3-1-0.

C. Obviously Circle of Life was a much better Sprinter than she was a route horse, even though she was by Belong to Me who's off spring tend to do better at longer distances.

Just Because CQ is by Thunder Gulch alot of people will assume that a route of ground should be no problem.

And if you want to dig a little deeper in CQ pedigree CQ dam Circle of Life is out of Concentric who as of today has had 6 foals to race with only 1 of them winning a race around 2 turns.

I am not going to say that by looking at a certain horses pedigree that what I have stated here about CQ will hold up all the time I just think there are enough Negatives in his pedigree to take a stand against at 3/5.

By the way all the info I gathered here on CQ came from the APR.
