Only pic I got of him:

I've been looking for an excuse to post it.


That being said, to me Arazi's BCJ win was even more impressive. Starting on the backstretch, he began to smoke the other horses and just never let up. His was one of the most impressive victories of any BC races.

I wasn't at the Arazi BC, but I was there for this one and I can definitively say I've never seen a 2yo run like that. Total command all the way around against what I think was a good group of runners. Arazi's move was a WOW, but Mo completely dominated and destroyed the field before they ever turned home.
