He'll get a gr1 win one of these days.

From your and Danzig's mouth to God's ears, Jim. I think he needs the race to set up for him, and it just hasn't been his day... yet. I adore him (I'm stupid for the Charismatics) and I hope he gets his G1.

Since he's not all that fashionable a pedigree, what do you think are the odds Farmer will run him as a 5-year-old?

Granted, he is not one that can just take control of a race and dominate it. But after all, very few can. If he stays healthy and retains his form he's going to get his GR1.

i'm hoping they keep him out there, esp if he doesn't manage a gr 1 win the rest of the year. he's right THERE. it will do wonders for him at stud if he can get it.

a lot of horses need a perfect set up. very few are able to run well regardless of the way the race plays out. war emblem immediately comes to mind! he either won or was off the board in every race. no joke!! if he got eyeballed, he backed right up, had to have the lead. very, very few who are tractable, rateable, truly push button. they ruin it for all the others!
