True, this was just a bunch of promising 3yos - Kid Edward, in particular, should be a good one in longer races - but it was the way he won that has some of us dazed and amazed.

You really that amazed? The trainer lost at odds on, and packed the wagon full of powder. Doug O'neil's having a big meet. That's like a huge sign that testing is lax down there right now.
