You are right. This colt needs some time to fill out and a few races at home where he can win to build his confidence back up. Benchmark produces strong leg horses that are pretty sturdy. I think his owner has made some foolish choices with this horse. He could of stayed home and won the Cal Cup which would of been perfect for the Strub races at Santa Anita.
