Also, breaking a TR in a maiden is totally impressive. I've owned horses for years. Stuff happens to them, sometimes through no fault of their own. They can take a bad step and be done.

The connections are very high on this one. I'd rather not say how and why I know. I think that they think he's a freak. I think it's just a matter of keeping the freak healthy and on the track.

Good insights. We'll see.
No doubt about him being a freak. I'd be ecstatic if I owned him.

I believe his dam broke her maiden by about twenty lengths as well and was rushed right into the breeders cup against halfbridled. Maybe I'm thinking of someone else, but I don't believe so.

Her first foal, macleans music, won big in his only start, going something like 1:14 for 6.5, earning a 114 Beyer. You can watch that on YouTube. I think this one of as more impressive.
