Don't know what this kid's stats are for the BEL meet but he's shown the ability to FINISH WELL -- something I can't attribute to too many jocks

For example:

BEL 7/11 R5 --- comes back, after dueling up front and then getting passed by Johnny V in the lane, to get 2nd -- JV is one of the finishers out there, so this one was very nice

BEL 7/3 R6 --- makes a prolonged/determined stretch run, never giving up, to just nail Maragh at the wire for 2nd ---Maragh is not exactly a strong finisher so this one maybe isn't as significant, though it certainly was impressive.

With all the weak finishers in the NYRA colony presently, this kid stands out.
