pace is the key to every race....

He is on easy leads because he runs 23 and 46 for a mile and an eighth on the stuff, thats part of it. The horse does not get out of the gate well but has phenomenal early speed. He has been challenged at pace on a grass turf sprint and came in 2nd. Fought very hard at the end.
The most suprising part for me is he has run hard fractions, had challengers come up to his rear and then he pulls away. The style is what interests me.

We will see. Looks like a tough animal. Will have to wait until he gets away from Cali tracks.
