EC worked pretty slow (race this weekend) so it really is hard to say and Showing Up's work was incredibly fast. It appears that he took to the turf. I didn't see the works just heard about them last night and read the times yesterday. SU's time was significantly faster than any other horse on the turf. My friend said Showing Up is super fast but distance could be a problem. Not an expert, but I was told it will be interesting to see how SU's speed works on the turf where it usually is better to come from off the pace. SU is no Barbaro though but a nice replacement. 3yr olds on the turf this year aren't much, probably why the bought that horse. None of them stand a chance of winning that bonus because they would have to beat older horses in the BC. Still $1M races are tough to come by. Wonder where all the Europeans are.
