Even with the hype, if people expect to see some Kauai Katie like fractions and figures I think they will be disappointed. You can learn a lot from watching two horses going 25 under a hold and gradually picking it up -- but sprint races are run by busting out of a starting gate, running hard right away, and decelerating throughout.

Will you be playing against?

I don't see anything in there to play against him with.

To make him even more unlikable, someone started a Twitter account and is "speaking" for the horse. Ugh.

I agree, I might try to use the #6 a little in doubles if they are paying enough.

Given the hype, I am a bit surprised that they didn't just unveil him in the Hopeful. And if he wins today, I will not be shocked if his second start is in the Breeder's Cup.
