I will say also I always had Great Hunter pegged as a plodder, but he made a move into the stretch that was visually very impressive, he won like he was much the best, he is a beautifully put together horse and moves very nicely. I may be a bit biased but I have to say I think the California horses looked the best on Saturday.

I don't quite agree with that. Great Hunter did look good. Even thought Stormello showed alot of heart, if you go back and watch that race again, No Biz and others were charging as well. When these races get stretched out he seems like he will get passed. Maybe a legit 1 1/8 horse, a 1 1/4 is still a question mark. Scatt Daddy looked better, he was hard charging and still looked to go more.
