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?

I can see it now, a remake of 'A Girl Named Tamiko', with Kent cast in the Laurence Harvey role. (I wasn't available)

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.

Don't get too excited.. Although this mare looks like you could breed Charasmatic to her and you would still get a graded winner..lol

Saw his maiden race, but didn't see him in the paddock pre race that day ...

I did some preliminary work on the figures, and I'm guessing this one gets around a 103 to 105 Beyer...not too shabby.
