It's not easy to gauge how those two were rated.

Peeping Tom was an all-time great claim. He made his stakes debut in the Cigar Mile and was 2nd to El Corredor at about 50/1. After he won the Carter in '01 - he was defeated in 21 straight graded stakes.

I think he was almost 100/1 the only time he ran in the Breeders Cup Sprint. I would consider him a very tough sprinter/miler with Grade 2 level talent.

A Huevo might have been the best West Virgina bred sprinter of all-time. He won his debut at Delaware in a maiden claimer. I think he also had Grade 2 type talent when he was on ... but was extremely fragile.

I think he is destined for the claiming ranks off the basis of what I saw in his return race.
