I knew he had talent, and if he ran back to the Glow Stakes (which was a key race last year) he had a chance in what figured to be a wide open race (despite "SHAKLS" getting bet down to even money), but in no way did I expect that.

He freaked on a soaked turf course that was not "good" as labeled. Huge efforts like that aren't too uncommon. Remember Brilliant in the Kent BC?
