So beware and let the hype begin, by the way Madame Lagonza was a very fast filly at least on the workout tab before she got injured.

What are you talking about? If anything, on paper is where he does have a shot. Who has the top beyer in this race? This guy ran an 87 first start of his career going 9f. A win that came over this track and he was wide the entire way around the track. He is not far behind the top horses on paper, and routine improvment from first-second start is always expected. Is it crazy to think a horse talented enough to run an 87 going 9f first time out can jump up to a 100 second time out? I dont think its crazy at all.
