Default Aristocrat (GZ's brother)

I just read that Aristocrat, the full brother to Ghostzapper goes on Belmont Day. Lets see how this horse stacks up. Has a lot to live up to.

Not his first start. He is no Ghostzapper. In fact, so far he has proven to be a quite average horse.

Frankel has him. He looks to be improving. He did beat Tagg's Rumspringa last year who is turning out to be quite the sprinter. May be just a late developer.

He has underacheived when comparing him to his older brother.. but Aristocat may have turned a corner. His last race at Keeneland was terrific. He came from off the pace in a move that quite impressive.
