I don't disagree. He should improve a whole lot. Certainly could be a good horse.
The mother was a nice closing turf stayer .. and Tapit's often seem to move plenty forward off of their debut.
Tapit's debuters are a combined 5-for-86, his best ones like Carless Jewel and Stardom Bound both got beat on debut.
Even without getting into circumstances - it's impressive that Avenging Spirt was good enough to run a Beyer in the low 60's on debut.
I'd have been a lot more excited if he was 30/1 instead of 3/1.
