The bottom line is that while Ready's Image was clear at the eighth pole, Majestic Warrior blew right by him. They went the 7/8ths in an identical time to older horses earlier on the card and the 2YOs did it with a slower pace.

In my opinion, it was an excellent performance from a horse who looks like he will be very comfortable with the mile of the Champagne and mile and a sixteenth of the BC Juvenile.

The Beyer number, by the way, was 95.

the hype is not going to matchup to the performance.

from a pace dynamics this race was ok, the filly who won earlier on the card for dutrow ran a better race.
