That was done in racehorse time off a layoff in his first start here. His Belmont could be huge. As someone pointed out to me he is actually a 3/4 to Rags who took Curlin down in the Belmont. He looks like the real deal.

Jockey?

Did this horse not turn up his nose at the opposition ????
He treated the dignified Belmont walking ring like his personal paddock to buck and fart in ...
And went on to show his tail to this lot with authority, if not insult ...
Great show by this horse ...
He has the look, the pedigree, the attitude, and oh yeah, the SOB can run ...

He has done that in both his starts. That was one scary performance for the second race of his career.
