More rehasing of old DrugS posts from elsewhere.....the 2nd "copy-paste" special of mine in this thread...
Discreet Cat VS Ghostzapper through their 3-year-old seasons
Career debut:
Discreet Cat: 1st by 3.5 lengths, 106 Beyer, 0 on Thoro-Graph
Ghostzapper: 1st by 9 lengths, 99 Beyer, 2 on Thoro-Graph
Record through 3yo season:
Discreet Cat: 6-6-0-0
Ghostzapper: 6-4-0-1
Top Career Beyer Through 3yo season:
Discreet Cat: 116
Ghostzapper 116
Worst Beyer of career:
Discreet Cat: 106
Ghostzapper: (3 times under 100)
Top Career Thoro-Graph figure through 3yo season:
Discreet Cat: -4.5 in Spa ALW, -4.75 in Jerome, ? for Cigar Mile
Ghostzapper: -4.5 in Vosburgh. By far his top
Grade 1 wins:
Discreet Cat: 1
Ghostzapper: 1
Number of starts around two-turns:
Discreet Cat: 0
Ghostzapper: 0
Why have the connections been shy to route these horses at a Classic distance:
Discreet Cat: Sire throws milers, dam was a speed mudder
Ghostzapper: Dam dropped confirmed sprinter City Zip
Both have falsly diagnosed pedigrees, and are absolutely bred to be speed routers.
The big difference: Connections:
Discreet Cat: Fools who think it's best to keep a horse in Dubai all winter
Ghostzapper: The magical Bobby Frankel
Conclusion: These horses are VERY similar through there 3-year-old season. Discreet Cat obviously holds the edge to this point----however, even being lightly raced, it's VERY unlikely he will make a big jump in form during his 4yo season like GZ did.
Discreet Cat is about to spend his 2ND entire winter in Dubai.
