Good horse. Not great, but could become one...

I agree with that, he is certainly at the top of the 3yo crop right now, has been at the top of his class since the BCJ. Repent use to say that he wouldn't even consider a horse until he/she beat older horses...I won't go that far, I rank the likes of Smarty Jones, Point Given and Risen Star very high but certainly to be considered more than good, he needs to win at least one more TC race and some races in the fall. If he wins the TC of course, I'll consider him great (it's a personal thing, I feel the TC signifies greatness) but again, others will want to see him beat older horses and there is a "pretty good" older horse out there waiting!
