Larry indicated that after his maiden, Larry hoped to talk Porter into agreeing to try grass. After the stud deal was announced, one of Jone's biggest disappointments was that he was never going to get to go on grass.
Yeah

Another PERFECT TRIP needing MONSTER. When did this horse ever RUN when he didn't have it all his own way? So, yeah, put him on a real firm turf, with tight turns, get him on the hedge or in a race with no other speed AND he's a MONSTER.
