![]() First route race in 7 months. Smart move i think. Hollendorfer is not Rontos Stable. Like you said, baby steps.

![]() It's a grade II with a $500,000 purse. That's not good enough? This will be his first race on real dirt. And as Outofthebox said, he just had the one 6 furlong sprint and now he's stretching all the way out to 1 1/8 miles. That's not easy to do. By the way, he's never run this far before.

![]() He will be running in the biggest races soon enough. Hollendorfer has never been afraid to ship back east. I don't know if the horse will make the Haskell. It is 22 days after the Los Al race. That is borderline. There aren't any big races at Del Mar for 3 year olds on the main track. The big races are on the grass. I would assume the Travers is a possibility. If the horse has no problem handling the 1 1/8 miles at Los Al, they may feel he's ready to stretch out to 1 1/4 miles in the Travers.
