Honestly, that would be like the Yankees winning 37 games.
They won the Presque Isle Mile this year. There's not much more you can ask for after you've accomplished that.

Nope, he hasn't turned into one yet. Connections were way unrealistic after he broke his maiden at FG when they didn't sell him for reportedly high 6 figures, and continue to run in bad spots, he is probably a high level claimer.
That might be the worst race ever for $51K. Prospect Knight has a very good chance in there- other than the Margolis there isn't much.

I know. The only reason he ran in that race here at Arlington was because we wanted to put the 25k starter condition in our pocket at Philly. The plan with him was to go to Philly from the start because he should be a dirt horse. I'll be betting him at what should be between 10-20/1

There's your answer on Tahitian Warrior. He's just not that good.
