His debut race was awesome. I think it was easily the most impressive debut I've seen this year. Despite that, I doubt that the horse is a Derby horse because he looks like he has distance limitations. He doesn't look like he wants to run much further than a mile.
Agreed. DrugS and I compared a few observations on that sale, and while I only looked at the quicker works with interesting pedigrees (or just interesting pedigrees), I thought that one was going to be the certain sales topper.

He's a very flashy/pretty horse too. I was pretty surprised by the low price.
