He was the same year as Storm Cat (1985). Won his debut by 22 lengths at Hawthrone in a field of 10.

I can't project him - but he was undefeated in 3 career starts - and went on to be an excellent sire. He and obviously Storm Cat a little more so - sure did wonders to the direction the breed is going.
