Maybe. Considering how much horse was wasted for the first 3/4s though, I don't think two turning is going to be a big issue.

Without having watched any other races there today, or recently, he did lose to a horse that was within 1/5th of a track record. He's also got breeding that would strongly suggest routing isn't a problem.

One thing I've felt for awhile, is that progeny of Pulpit seem to be a bit faint hearted.
