Creative Cause beat Bodemeister in the San Felipe on dirt with a 102 Beyer and a 0 on TG the last time he wore blinkers.

He was beaten a nose by I'll Have Another in the SA Derby.

Everyone was certain Creative Cause was physically amiss going into the Kentucky Derby. He was missing training, Bruno De Jullio was saying he never looked worse, he had an issue with a foot and all this other stuff,

That's a tough horse. He's got a low ROI cowboy training him, he was raced heavy at age 2 and keeps answering the bell. The other two big horses are being training by a couple of alchemists ... and they both missed a lot of dances at age 2.

I just prefer Creative Cause as the better sire prospect. Bodemeister obviously 2nd best. I'll Have Another might be the 15th best stallion prospect in this crop.
