On the other hand....
...perhaps Pletcher is right, and The Green Monkey ISN'T a sprinter. If that's the case, was today's effort really that bad?
I hope TGM becomes a great horse. Part of me thinks if he had a high degree of talent, he would have shown more today. However, I think we would all agree that one start does not make a career.
In the end, I would say his race was similar to getting an "F" on the first exam of the semester with 4 exams to go. It's still mathematically possible to get an "A" for the year. But you better study hard.
