So is Bob Black Jack the real deal or did we just witness one of the slowest G1s for older males in recent history?

Do you mean Johnny Eves? Yes I think hes the real deal but he will be more suited for distances between 6.5 f to one mile. He benifited from a classic ride by David Flores. Sat nicely behind the knuckle-head speed horses and just shot out of the barrell.

Bob Black Jack won a 2yo State Bred Stakes earlier in the card in 1:20.37. Johnny Eves went 1:21.08.

Took a sub 44 half by 25 maiden claimers to get somebody to make up ground from behind.

By "somebody" I hope you didn't mean the winner since he was about 1/2 length from the lead at the pace call like a lot of the other winners on the card today. Nice final time for maiden claimers, eh.

Yeah,you're right. Garrett asked him the whole way,and was 2 lengths off on the backstretch.If you own a rater,why bother running?
