FOREST LORD certainly looks like a runner. After a quarter mile in Lexington chestnut son of Forest Camp moved up to a half mile three weeks later. Ronny got him and immediately put him in company out of the gate, then five panels before shipping north. Werner a terrific debut conditioner worked this one in company with undefeated stablemate and graded winner Run Away and Hide and "Lord" could not go with that one but came back with solid co-bullet Saturday, working much faster than useful sophomore stablemate The Darp.

From a breeding standpoint "Lord" is a stand out with two year old champions littering his immediate pedigree. Deputy Minister, Smart Angle, Seattle Slew and Rockhill Native are all in the first two generations with the latter three on the dams side. JR gets the call for Mr. Preston and not much to beat at least on paper.

Cognito had a solid debut and should go favored, although the money often shows, and scores in this type of heat. Nevertheless the rail no bargain especially this heavily cambered oval when the float is used yet this well bred gray from top dirt barn in the country may complete the perfecta. BBB
