Gomez never asked the horse to start running when he did and he took off like a jet.
Part of his appeal to me is that while he is a headstrong horse that does exactly what he wants to do exactly when he decides to do it, is that he has some personality and loves what he is doing out there. he appears to enjoy racing quite a lot. Its the rare horse who at an early age understands what his objective is out there.
He honestly seems to enjoy what he is doing. I can't find a recent 2yo to compare him too. I honestly think hes no plodder, and I think he will be better going longer when he can stalk moreso than drop to the back of the pack.
He just throws what I call a "knockout punch".

Don't get me wrong I like the horse and bet him yesterday. What I didn't like is how he was not intersted in the early going and the rider said he had to really get after him to get him to go. Now when he made up his mind to run it was all over. His action will develope as he matures, but it is similar to Barbaro's
