Wins at 5,6,8,9,10 and 12 furlongs. I'd say that is impressive.

I believe I remember reading that his two 2yo races in this country recieved tremendously fast Ragozin figures.

I believe they had one of them faster than anything Big Red ran in his 2-year-old Horse of the Year season in '72.

Eight races as a 2YO?
Five races as a 3yo before the Derby?
It almost seems like Barrera wasn't concerned about having a "fresh" horse.
What a fool.

lol, didn't they say the same thing about Lawyer Ron? Some 14 starts or so before the Derby, that he would be ruined with so many races?

If Canonero II had run in the US for his debut it'd been through the roof...I can't find his PP data for Venezuela.

For some reason I always liked his story....maybe it's an ugly duckling thing and Cajun always talking crooked this...crooked that.
