Question: Why is the Tomlinson number for Big Brown as high as it is when his breeding suggest(according to Lauren Stich) that he should want no part of a 1 1/4?

A nice boost would come from Nureyev, the broodmare sire... And Boundary himself likely has an average base figure.
Guess? Boundary scores a 180 and Nureyev a 270 for stamina. That's 180 + 135 = 315... bringing up Big Brown to an OK distance score.
