Great call on that one.

He started out like he was worth a lot more than what they paid for him.

A debut win by over 12 in July at Belmont.

A four month layoff where he has only one work before his comeback, and he beats Sunday Silence by a head.

Then another almost four month layoff, where he comes back to beat Mr. Nickerson by over 10 in a stakes at AQU. Then the wheels fell off.

Though, his derby race wasn't that bad, he was never the same after that race at AQU.
