Correct. He eventually became a very good turf horse winning the Woodbine Mile.

It wasn't until he went badly off form till they put this son of Theatrical on the turf in his 14th lifetime start..Also when Siphon beat him in the Hollywood GC, it gave Baily the idea that he could not give Siphon an easy lead in the Pacific Classic with Cigar..which was a big factor in Cigar's streak ending that afternoon at Del Mar..

Yep. Although Siphon was pretty good and Cigar would have had his hands full if he didn't press him.

The worst part of Bailey's ride was that Nakatani was using Dramatic Gold to keep Siphon honest. Instead of letting him do the dirty work for him, Bailey went out and assassinated Siphon in a 3-way pace war and got himself beat.
