Are you seriously considering this horse could be a factor in the Derby? Sireside is sprinter/miler - Put it Back, Honour and Glory, Exuberant. Damsire Skip Trial could stay, but the female family is sprinter/miler oriented as well. Staying bloodlines often produce sprinters due to regression to the mean, but sprinting bloodlines very rarely produce stayers.

As I said 3 weeks ago, when I initially brought this colt up, it is hard to imagine a world where Put It Back's get a mile and a quarter, but I guess anything can happen.

What I am most impressed with is in a day and age where a race like this guy ran on Feb 10 would knock a colt "for a loop" this one comes right back 3 weeks later with another show.

Plesa said after his last race that he didn't think this one would be for sale. I hope she doesn't sell, but I guess we'll see.

He's running 9 furlongs already, you can throw pedigree out the window.

That post was enough to make me root for him.

His 2nd dam Stormy Divorce (Storm Bird - sire of Storm Cat) did produce False Promises who won the G3 Hawthorne Derby @ 9F. There is a lot of speed in the family but the conduit mare profile shows more of a speed/stamina balance.

Agreed, one does not get a warm fuzzy stamina feeling from his pedigree. But he is a 5 gen outcross with a 3.00 DI so we'll have to watch him on the track.
