I would really like to see what he could do at 7 or 8 furlongs, kind of like Shackleford.
Just because he's a front runner doesn't mean he's more suited for shorter races. He just ran triple digit beyers at 10 and 9.5 furlongs! I think Bodemeister would win the Belmont Stakes.
Easy Goer turned the tables on Sunday Silence, so I don't see why Bodemeister couldn't do it, but we'll never know.
