Showing Up could very well be a monster on the turf. And Strategic Mission could become a huge turf sire.

Strategic Mission was a really good turf horse. I saw him finish second to Altibr when Altibr broke the course record at Keeneland for the mile in the Shadwell Turf Mile. Sadly, Altibr died a couple years ago. I have to go with Showing Up in this one too because of he impressed me in the derby and he should like the turf and I like Tagg horses on the turf.
