That is the truth. The Oaklawn strip played pretty well to frontrunners on Saturday but this guy went quick early then held them off gamely in a nice performance.

I've held his Sea O'Erin against him as I foolishly needed the 2nd place finisher to get up for the tri and super and this guy just kept on going. The other amazing thing about him is that he seems to pay well every time.

He paid like $150 to win that mile race at Arlington, one of the highest payoffs of the entire year last year that I could remember

What a neat horse Euroears has become.

I'm going off memory, but wasn't this the first race that Grasshopper rated off the pace?

It looks like Borel has commited to Turf War, Grasshoppers full bro, for his Derby mount.

Loved Spotsgone on Saturday and then managed to not cash a dollar on him. He's a neat horse who's turned into a decent animal.

He's no world beater, but he tends to always show up and has now managed to steal two Grade III races and a turf race in the past year. He's the type of horse who's easy to love because it seems that no matter how fast he goes, he has shown the ability to get very brave on the front end.

On top of that, Saturday marked the fifth time in the last year that he got the better of Gouldings Green in their five meetings, and if memory serves me right -- at a much better price than Gouldings Green in each of those five races.

In other news from Oaklawn, Sweet Redeemer looked solid winning the closer. Second out, got bet down to 5-2 favoritism, raced well behind the early pace and simply cruised once let loose around the turn. Not likely to be a champ, but definitely an interested horse to keep an eye on given the close over a track that wasn't playing overly kindly to that type of runner on Saturday.
