He should stretch out with his pedigree. Most people don't pay $3M for a sprinter. I heard the same things about Ghostzapper and he stretch out just fine.

Rondo is 100% sound right now his problem was his shoulder and it just took some time to heel. and it should never bother him Again. (not saying somethig else cant happen). he is one serious race horse and he will prove that this year.

Ladies and gentleman, it's Derby Trail's first Rondo/Ghostzapper comparison! Didn't take long!

I didn't realize using Ghostzapper as an example was he same as comparing Rondo to Ghostzapper. Thanks for letting me know that.

It comes off as "If Ghostzapper can do it, so can Rondo!" when you say stuff like that. But I'm just breaking balls anyway, so don't take it personally.
