Also - what makes him so likely to develop rapidly? I suppose you can always try putting Borel up and having him take way back. I wouldn't touch Stay Thirsty in a future book even at a very fat price.

Yes, I know that - but no one is Uncle Mo at this point. I only asked Andy because I was curious to get his perspective based on a comment he had made. I totally understand why he's underwhelming to most people......and it doesn't bother me. I've learned as a sports fan that it doesn't matter what I think or anyone else thinks - the horse or the team or the player is going to perform the way they will regardless. I could be dead wrong about ST and it wouldn't be the first time. Anyway, my Derby horse is THAS - I would be crushed if I were wrong about him (not that I'm predicting him to win the Derby - it's just that if he didn't turn out like I hoped, it would bother me)
