I apologize if you have already explained this elsewhere, but I am curious why you call him a turf horse. The pedigree looks more dirt/route to me, and I believe he posted some pretty decent works over the dirt. Obviously you and Chuck know what you're doing, and I ask just because even though I'm not involved directly with DeeTee, I always enjoy getting an inside look into how and/or why connections target specific races.
Best of luck with Redboard King at Philly next week and going forward. I hope to see him in person if he makes a trip to AP at some point this summer.

I am under no illusions that he will be at his best on Monday but he has trained well lately and is ready to move onto the next stage. The race will do him some good from a fitness standpoint as well, especially if we look to stretch him out and the experience of going through the paddock/post parade/ starting gate process is important going forward.
