Captain Steve was a pretty underrated horse. He was a VERY good 2-year-old ... for whatever reason the first half of his 3yo season was weak ... but he really turned the corner in the second half of his 3yo season season through his easy Dubai World Cup win.

He could have easily given Tiznow all he wanted in a fairly run race.
