I had dismissed him too while in NY.. However, he is stabled next to Mike Rogers at Gulfstream, and my radio partner JJ has been around him since his arrival here and the colt has made a positive impression on him.

He may not be up to the task Saturday by any means, but JJ, whose opinions on a horse's attributes I respect tremendously, thinks he's got real ability.
