Good capping by you if you scored with this one, but I couldn't make a favorable case. Seemed to me that Bond wanted this one on turf first out (which got washed off) and the blinks and cutback are not moves he is very successful with. Factor in that the solid family of runners have a combined 14 wins, but all of those wins around two turns, this one did not jump off the page to me in a 1 turn sprint.
