After winning those 2 races, he will enter the Kentucky Derby as "a deserving favorite"

It was the 8th race that day if anyone wants to check it out.
Fell in love with this horse after checking out the PPs last weekend. I'm a big Mac R. fan and this horse looked well-meant. I didn't realize he'd be as serious as he turned out to be. Was hoping to get a future wager on him, but it fell through, and he's not even nominated for the TC...and doesn't seem bred to go much further than about 6.5 furlongs, so we'll see what happens.

Think he's something special, though. Thanks for posting this. Will be interesting to follow him, as that was one of the most impressive debut performances I've personally seen in a long time and there were a couple of other decent looking runners in there.
