Not bred like a speedball or an early maturing type at all. He's been in what appear to be among the strongest of the races for his generation at his level. He won nicely on the stretchout and beat a colt that came back to win. I don't they paid $950k for a horse that might win the Pat O'Brien. He's got all the earmarks of a classic colt.
