FMC,
Good luck with your horse. As you can see, he's bred for classic distances.
It's up to you and your trainer to evaluate what he looks like on the track.
There are many different ways to build "works" into him.
Baffert and H Allen J, and many others use wind sprints (run short to build lung capacity). Others go with long gallops (muscle, endurance).
It all depends on how your horse responds. You can always mix up the tasks.
Then find a race that suits him and work toward it.
Best of luck!
DTS
