Totally agree with you on that one, Paul.
We both know which one has a 14 right in the middle... (hush).
The Belmont presents something that many aren't bred for.
Heck, flash at short distance at the 2yo sales, and all the "need for speed" won't get anyone a horse that can last a mile and a half.
Might make the breeder a nice price at the auction...but not the required staying (heart).
By the way, if you like paternal grand sire Deputy Minister, take a guess who's paternal grandsire both Big Daddy Ray and Shot o' Bourbon's is....
Yup...Deputy Minister.
