Scat Daddy was just out of gas coming home. I will wait to handicap his next race, it's alittle too early now.
2Hot, I'm not quite sure about his action. But i will say this, that horse is running completely within his own authority. Bejarano said in the Bashford that the horse himself dove to the inside and all he did was hang on and try to get through the hole.
Gomez never asked the horse to start running when he did and he took off like a jet.
Part of his appeal to me is that while he is a headstrong horse that does exactly what he wants to do exactly when he decides to do it, is that he has some personality and loves what he is doing out there. he appears to enjoy racing quite a lot. Its the rare horse who at an early age understands what his objective is out there.
He honestly seems to enjoy what he is doing. I can't find a recent 2yo to compare him too. I honestly think hes no plodder, and I think he will be better going longer when he can stalk moreso than drop to the back of the pack.
He just throws what I call a "knockout punch".
