Thor's Echo won the WinStar Derby in April of 2005 at Sunland Park and Supah Blitz won the Carl Rose at Calder in November 2004. Both those races were 1 1/8th on the dirt.
He is 15 for 101 at a mile or over outside of California in the last five years. One was at a mile ( Sky Jack in the Longacres Mile at Emerald Downs in August of 2003 ) and the rest were at 1 1/16th. His ROI, for what it's worth, is 1.45 for those starts.

I wasn't even thinking turf races since the dynamics of those races can be so different that they may not be as tiring. So April '05 at Sunland and Nov '04 are the last two on the dirt. Pretty staggering numbers. Thanks for the info.
