 Elusive Quality never ran a race around two turns on the main track.
He won his only start beyond a mile, in an 8.5f allowance at Belmont in his third career start.  
He was also 2nd in a 8f allowance and well beaten after setting a scorching pace in the Met Mile in his only other main track starts beyond 7f.  
He may still hold the course record for a mile on turf at Belmont, winning the Poker in 1:31 and change.
