Tune in to next week's episode of DrugS Handicapping Hour of Power .. as this might be a topic of discussion.
The most amusing horse to me is certainly Buddy's Saint ... and not because he has the all-important triple digit Beyer in career start #2 at 7f or beyond angle (that fig was thanks to a perfect trip up a gold rail)
The reason why I love Buddy's Saint so much is because he is the product of two of the all-time most unlikely move-ups I've ever seen.
His sire Saint Liam was an absolute dog biscuit as a 3yo for a pretty solid trainer before Dutrow transformed him into a Horse of the Year.
His dam Tuzia was claimed for 25K and ran dead last at 2/5 odds while with trainer Juan Serey....
That sounds like the kind of claim that goes on to never again win another race ... but Tuzia returns off of a 9 month layoff and negative trainer switch and runs four sick races in a row.
