It is a popular belief in horseracing that color and markings hint at passing on surface preference.

IIRC in "the works" show for the 2007 bc juvy, the guy was talking about how Wicked Style had socks similar to Trempolino, so that meant he was likely better on turf...

Discreet Treasure is already a three year old. It took a long time to get this one to the racetrack in the afternnon. Hopefully he more robust than his half brother. ElPrado is a good grass sire so I'd prefer to see this one run on the grass. At least we know he can handle the dirt when a race is washed off the turf.
