Speightstown took a while to get good, but from 3/27/04-10/30/04 he was a beast....
5/6 with one third. The third came against a very good Frankel horse and Stown had some trouble at the start. Beyers of 106,112,115,116,117 and even a 102 in that bad break third. My problem with him is Pretty Wild, Cat Genius, Kela, Clock Stopper and McCanns Mojve are the horses he was beating up on.
