Anothatwistafate took off like he was Runhappy down the stretch in 12 seconds. They paid $360 for him so there's no reason to think he won't handle dirt. He's electrifying.

Not sure why the purchase price would impart main track capability to a horse, but Anothertwistafate was buried in his first start, which was on the dirt at Santa Anita. There's many examples of horses getting crushed in their debuts only to display marked improvement next out, but this horse is basically bred for the turf top and bottom.
