Thanks.

He was involved in back to back insane pace battles. Here are the pace figures for his last two races on the 100 point scale.

Breeders Futurity:

Race (+37): 102 for a half mile, 93 for six furlongs 65 for final time

Laddie's Boy: 99 for a half, 89 for six furlongs, 55 final time


Iroquois:

Race (+29): 94 for a half, 81 for six furlongs, 65 final time.

Laddie's Boy: 94 for a half, 81 for six furlongs, 61 final time.
