I saw both of Cindago's races at SA and DM and he was without question the cream of the west coast 3yo crop. Brother Derek would have been second fiddle if he stayed sound.
The stretch duel between Latent Heat and Cindago when he broke his maiden was the possibly the best race of the whole SA w/s meet imo. And he absolutely crushed Da Stoops, Bob and John, and Bro Derek in the El Cajon at Del Mar this summer.
If you saw the horse run i doubt there would be any laughter in regards to his talent....just frustration at what could have been and a 3 race career.
RP says he was his favorite at the Barretts March 2005 and when you look at the names that came from that sale..... thats a strong statement.
