Next to Kotashaan, who outside of one race did all his winning at Santa Anita, Sunshine Forever would certainly be the choice in a race run at 12f.

Sunshine Forever got hurt between his 3&4 yr old season. Vetch said he never really tried to run hard after the injury. He was a very game, talented runner.
