What could this guy do in a one mile turf event?
It was certainly something you don't see every day.

Chance? CHANCE???!!!! Jim, you and i both know if anyone with a brain is on that horse he wins by 5 at least. When he dug in for 2nd I was convinced I was seeing one of the biggest blooming turf stars that we have seen in years. I still cant believe what that horse did. Lets face it, the winner was given a trip that you dream about. Saved all ground with no trouble behind a leader who was 17 lengths in front in 1:08:4 for a race that far on a turf course that isnt known for producing times like that. Mind boggling that he could dig in and hold the place.
