Big Time Pedigree (Half to Indian Blessing!)

I think both of them were in the money in the BCJ, and I think Tabasco Cat won some minor stakes race at 2. Street Cry put together a pretty decent 2yo campaign too if I remember correctly.
There is certainly no reason that a colt with Desert Party's pedigree couldn't be a very nice 2yo runner, but it seems probable that he will do better at the 2yo races later in the year when the distances stretch out a bit.
That being said, a big effort from him this weekend wouldn't exactly be a big shocker.

Or maybe even Saarland.

I realize you are probably being facetious, but to anyone with half a brain, it is completely obvious which parent Indian Blessing gets her ability from.

However.

I bet you they ship east with this horse, like they did with IB.

Desert Party ($2.5 million buy) beat out Munnings ($1.7 million) and Mr. Mistoffelees ($1.5 million) for that honor.

By Street Cry out of a Tabasco Cat mare - 4.5f on polytrack doesn't seem like the type of situation you'd see a pedigree like that debut at.

Whoa...what a debut. Harty actually made an appearance, at least it look like him in the winner's circle

Broke well, sat behind speed, got a good trip and Douglas really never asked the horse, won as easy as they could

I would put him as the favorite for the Arl Wash Futurity though...

But my guess is that he is being shipped to California (with Harty) or maybe Saratoga....

Meanwhile, Steve Haskin is watching the replay over and over on a loop while scouring its pedigree for reasons why this horse will be the first horse to break both the BC Juvy jinx and the Dubai curse simultaneously by winning the 2009 Derby...

Sooner or later they are going to learn about shipping horses over there, hopefully they don't ship this one.

I know the only reason he was at Arlington was because of the polytrack

It might be Harty's clever way of latching on to the colt, seeing how he can point out the recent Colonel John's successful campaign towards the Derby (ignoring the actual end result, obviously).

Nonetheless, you have to think they'll be desperate to run the horse in Godolphin blue. They even took the modest Zada Belle out of Harty's barn just for winning a first condition allowance off a 2-year layoff.
