That will never happen, however, as the connections have made it clear from their actions that they are hell-bent on ruining this horse. Of that I am quite confident they will be successful.
This is why I respected Lost In The Fog's people.

He was running 100 Beyers right out of the box, and they never once stretched him out. They knew where he belonged.

What leads you to believe he'll be a "monster sprinter"?

I just don't see it.

He is a young horse and right now and is on the improve. His comeback race after the BC was good in the fact he learned to rate a bit before unleashing. Before he would jet and and barely hang on. I look forward to see him in the kings bishop if the connections eye it.

His family does suggest he might go longer. His 11 starts as a 2 year old is a black mark against his connections.

I'm stunned that he is still running fairly well. Tough horse.
