Yes - in the Hollywood Futurity - LaL really showed his vast superiorty to that son of Cuvee who looked good at Presque Isle Downs. The mighty Noble's Promise.
LaL beat Pulsion by less than 2 lengths in the Norfolk - he crushed him in the Juvie despite a supposed horror show trip.
You don't hustle horses out of the gate in synthetic track routes - it's idiotic. And when you do - and you run up on heels and have to check sharply - you're rarely going to finish - and the name of the game is finishing.
The horses that thrive routing on that surface are mostly wide closers.
