It was his style, not the figure I meant. I guess I have a thing for "fast closing" horses.

And, apparently, slow closing horses.

Guess I should put my money elsewhere instead of this one, right?

Who the hell knows when, if ever, he's even going to run.

It was the "cold sore" comparison that changed my mind.

I actually agree with you a little on this. I don't think he is one of the top ten Derby horses by any stretch of the imagination, but I do think he has a pretty decent chance to win the Gotham at least.
He certainly isn't great, but I don't think he is as bad as many on here seem to think.

thank you, horse has never done a thing wrong, all he does is win, always moves forward, he should be on any and every top 10 list, i can see why not top 5, but 10 for sure
