A La bred N1X for older horses went a second and a fifth slower 30 minutes before off of a nearly identical half-mile.

His dam, Ready's Gal, broke her maiden at first asking at Saratoga in 2004 and won 7 of 17 lifetime including the Lake George, Matchmaker and Hillsborough.

Not many Neil Howard first timers are bet and run like that.

WOW.
any horse that breaks their maiden before the age of 5 for N. Howard is a serious colt.

Distorted Humor is probably the best debut sire going.
