Those are serious fractions up there. He ran FB into submission and only got run down by Smokey Fire because he didn't change leads in the stretch and was drifting badly, as a result.

His form DRAMATICALLY improved when he was sent to Jordan. His dirt starts were far from anything to be thrilled about, but it's hardly surprising that Jordan moved him up off of CR Trout.
People were bringing up Fatal Bullet with regards to Smokey Fire because he's more of a household name having won stakes races in America. Fact of the matter, as you said, is that Hollywood Hit has absolutely buried him twice this year.
Personally, I think Majesticperfection is better but I'd love to see them lock horns early.
