You must be hoping that Showing Up takes after his dad, because his mum's side hasn't produced many horses that have shown much liking for the green stuff. Turf records like x/0-0-0 in my APR.

I am well aware of how they grade races, but we shouldn't attack guys who don't know everything.
Showing Up loves the turf. I guess he does take after his dad. He actually has the same demeanor as Strategic Mission. SM was a pretty nice turf horse. His bottom isn't exactly garbage. He is out of a TV Commercial mare. Last I checked TV Commercial finished 3rd in the KY Derby. In my opinion, this race will not be competitive. He has way too much class and is much faster than the other horses in this race.
