El Corredor was a sprinter/miler with a tremendous late kick. (Like Lit de Justice in the BC Sprint). If Dominican has been able to graft that late kick onto the damside staying power, he could be a real threat. Chief's Crown, by the way, also won the Travers by a pole.
His pedigree attracted me to Hard Spun, too. His dam won a 12f turf stakes at Pimlico and was out of a half-sister to Belmont winner Little Current. You can't find a much better 'foundation' on which to use a speedy miler-type sire like Danzig with to get a classic-type horse.
