There are plenty of open company stakes at Remington for 2YOs (3 altogether) and there's another at Zia Park at 6 furlongs, Louisiana Downs only has them on turf as does Evangeline but Delta has some pretty nice open company 2YO races in the fall.

How many of them other than the Zia park race are sprinting?

Two of the three at Remington are sprinting. One at Delta is 7fs around the bullring.

Do you have something against Bret Calhoun?

Why would I have something against Bret Calhoun? I think he is a good trainer and a good guy.

But I dont think this horse is a future star

I was mainly breaking your balls and could have used an emoticon but I opted against it. Just knowing Calhoun in a minor way I didn't think you'd have an issue with him.

I agree that he's likely not a future star but I'm sure they can win a couple of races and make a little bit of money with the horse.

Chuck has a good point based on Shocktime's awful showing in the Debutant Saturday... Had spun a 13 length win at LS in the TTAS Futurity (83 fig) and faded badly as second choice in the 2yo G3.

So Randall's point stands as well.
