Let me ask you guys who are doubting Sun King: first, name the five races where he's attempted 10 furlongs? I only count three.

Second, has Sun King tried 10 furlongs in his four year old season? Lots of horses have run up the track at longer distances as three year olds, yet came back to run brilliantly at 10f as older horses. Pleasantly Perfect comes to mind. Conversely, there are many horses who show promise at a distance as sophomores, yet don't run a lick as an older horse. Flower Alley immediately comes to mind.

I'd love to hear answers to those two questions.
