He wasn't bad.

If you want to use horses like AA and SJ--horses who never ran after the Belmont Stakes---than why not a horse like Risen Star? Who trip handicapers felt ran the best race of anyone in the Derby...and followed that up with a Preakness and Belmont Stakes sweep. Winning the Belmont by a city block.
He's absolutely the #2 from the crop, and SJ destroyed him twice. 'Nuff said.

What a stunning animal as well. Lane's End is pretty good about showing their stallions, he is an absolute beast- one of the largest thoroughbreds I have ever seen.
