I wish I had some of the California horses Gun Bow destroyed out there early in his 4yo season. I only have what came back East afterwards from those races.
Deal Carl was a very good 3yo East Coast distance specialist - he crushed a good field by 12 in the slop in the Display. Couldn't handle the faster paces in So. Cal
Admiral's Voyage had just dusted the excellent Cyrano and the Hall of Famer Native Diver - he couldn't get to Gun Bow early and faded bad. He had success coming East.
Native Diver is in the Champions book - he got murdered by Gun Bow in the West.
Gun Bow's biggest win coming when he won the Strub by 12 lengths over a 13 horse field - he actually had a 15 length lead at the stretch call.
Weird horse. He is to a Kelso what Commentator might be to Cigar in terms of consistantcy.
