Yes, this was his 5th race. They sprinted him first time out at Del Mar in July on the synthetic and he ran fair. He dropped way back and made a little late run. They gave him over two months off after that race. His next two races were route races in October and he ran 2nd and 3rd. He wore blinkers in those two races in October. Then they gave him another two months off and took the blinkers off. In his 4th race, he broke his maiden by a neck. It was in his 5th race (yesterday's allowance race) where he really stepped up and ran huge.
