Two Year Olds to Watch

He actually looks a little bit like Greeley's Galaxy.

At this point, Belgravia is in my top 5 prospects for next year.

Hey, the information on this board isn't too bad. LOL.

Not sure it has been mentioned but Hollywood Prevue winner Belgravia hails from the same family as Afleet Alex, which may have had some bearing on his $2,000,000 purchase price. Belgravia's second dam Dorothy Gaylord is the third dam of Afleet Alex. The runner up in the Prevue looks like another runner to follow: Dilemma (Grand Slam - Heavenly Cat by Tabasco Cat) was a $650,000 Keeneland November weanling purchase and races in the Glen Hill Farm colors. Dilemma's third dam is the Grade-I winning millionaire Sabin.

Well, In the spirit of full disclosure, I've got to tell you that I am very familiar with the horse as I've got a piece of 'er. In fact, My partner and I put her on our "short list" at Ocala last Apr under the advice of G. Contessa and were fortunate enogh to get her. She's a great gal - the type of horse that will run all day and night long if you'd let her.
Her second start was really a learning experience for all of us about her - She came out of the first race remarkably well, she had us all believing she was ready 2 weeks later but clearly needed another week or two -my guess the check took a bit out of her. She looked restless in the paddock but broke well, unfortunately when JC took her to the rail, she got spooked a little after her last episode and then tired a bit. Just not a great trip.
Her last out was the turn of foot that I became accustomed to seeing all summer at the training farm. We'll see Sunday in the East View Stakes if she can keep it going!

If it makes ya feel any better, I cashed enough tickets on her 3rd start to make up for the first 2! lol
