Leroy Jolley trained him through his 3YO season and Lukas had him as a 4YO.
I saw a LOT of those races. He lost the Gotham in the mud to, I believe, Gone West and the Whitney to Java Gold. He lost the Whitney the following year to Personal Ensign.
Of course, if Afleet had a competent rider, he would have beaten Gulch in both the Met Mile ( as 4YOs ) and the BC Sprint.
