thanks for explaining cocca's pps to me. didn't understand what a alw 40000s was.

anyway, there was a reason that this horse took the year off between feb05 and feb06, and whatever it was, it looks like it took some time and racing for this horse to get to the level that the connections thought he was. they spent alot of time in the msw company, obviously because they thought he belonged. it took some time and some class relief to get him over the hump, but it looks like he's there. it would be hard pressed for anybody in this field to beat florida keys, so his performance in phoenix isn't anything to get all bothered about. the horses that were showing speed in the routes will have to pick it up to the tune of 10 lengths to the first call if they want to be near the front, and, though that isn't an impossibility, usually extended route racing dulls early speed to some extent.

6 months ago i would have agreed that he was outclassed in here. aside from rush rush and seminole native, we have a bunch of career n1x losers. who knows what frankel is bringing to the talbe in this one. frankel/flores is 12/23. awesome.
