Looks like a big talented horse that lacks experience. If he learns to pick it up a bit early and straightens out those turns... Good looking horse. Big long strider in the stretch.

Might even be able to run well on the turf. Clearly has stamina.
The hosts on tvg were talking Belmont after he won. I'm not sure if they were speculating themselves or if they were quoting the trainer. I can't recall the last horse to run in the Belmont off of a California prep let alone win it.
