Kev he was quite impressive. I suppose since Harty hasn't developed a horse from scratch at age two yet that you could question what he will eventually do, but his win was spectacular and he trained like it before his debut.
The Zito horse he beat was very highly thought of and had the benefit of a prep race, something thats worth 10 times in a postive way that the 1 hole is in a negative way. The harty horse broke professionally and flat out was better than the Zito horse. I think he is a very nice animal.
Of course true race watchers know that Motts 3rd place finisher ran as well as the first two horses if not better after breaking slowly and getting hung wide most of the backside while debuting without a long work tab.
I'd expect Mott's horse to really be the best of the three based on what i saw in that race.
