I love him as a turf horse. If the Derby is moved to the Churchill Downs turf course Daddy Long Legs would win with utterly disdainful ease.

He's not entirely an unknown quantity on dirt ... he ran up the track in the BC Juvenile while Wrote (a horse he pissed on in a wickedly fast 2yo turf race in Europe that went as fast as an older Group 1 for fillies at the distance thirty minutes later) made short work of the field in the Breeders Cup Juvenile turf.
