Uh, no. He would not have won. The better horse won, and he won easily. That horse could never beat a good horse that can rate. This is turf racing, not dirt. The good ones all have explosive turns of foot. You will never find a great turf horse that runs on the lead.

Milers. KD might be a BC Mile horse, but this race isn't a mile.

agree his best distance will surely be a mile. He may just be better than these 4 miles over the jumps. Horses like Ec or cicique different story

His full sister was a million dollar yearling at the 2005 September Keeneland sale. Do you think he'll be able to close as strong as he did in his first start?

What is the website mentioned earlier for the connections of this horse? What is the name of the horse that is running in the claiming Crowm. I suspect it is the only Dutrow horse that is entered I am not looking at the entries but I believe its Sinners N Saints. They must be very confident if they are hopping on a plane to fly to Canterbury Park.
