Mitchell also had him when he ran 8th in his first start in California before being placed on a synthetic. Peter Walder (who is currently 18-for-51 and winning at a 35% clip at GP) trained him when he was 4th on the dirt in the 50K claimer.
Mitchell obviously played a role in this horse improving - but that has nothing to do with the surface question.
Peter Walder is one of the highest percentage guys around - he's not some bum who gets in horses way.
