At Santa Anita, Wilburn, a HUGE son of Bernardini and a half to Beethoven just walloped his field. He showed a very good turn of foot and drew away to win by about 5, 6 1/2 furlongs in 1:13 and change. He's out of a Carson City mare so who knows how far he wants to go, but as the analyst on the racing channel said, so was Barbaro. No, I'm not comparing them at ALL, just saying that maybe this guy will take after his sire. He was the sales topper at the April 2 year old sales last year
