Too bad Abel can't rate like that on a horse.

Probably not -- I think he won his career debut going 4.5

Yeah, I think he got loose on the lead here. Also, who'd he beat?

The thought of a horse running that fast on that kind of surface just makes you cringe. I can't imagine he's not gonna end up incredibly sore.

Ran 2nd today in a thriller.. Gained lead and dead-heated actually as a big price got up.

Game horse. He never let that pickup truck by. He drifted three paths, so blinkers or a run out bit may be in order.
