I'm very fond of this horse, stunning good-looks and has done fairly well in his 11 starts of the year, including a win over the weekend....but the best part is, he was bought at F&T October for $9,000 What a great deal!

I like him a lot too, Sightseek. The way he moves over the ground is impressive...

My opinion is this horse will be a ATM machine probably not a Gr1 winner but a mopneymaker. The price is the key. Probably as sound as any with a few flaws. The "horsemen" will find the flaws and pick him apart while his conection are cashing the checks.

Looks like they are going to try and stretch him out again. I wish they'd just keep him in sprints where he belongs before they ruin him. Maybe he'll be able to stretch out as he matures but rushing him to try and get to Kentucky in May is foolish in my opinion.

BINGO!
This is a nice horse that has no business on the Triple Crown trail.

Not sure this horse has much ability though I suppose if handled properly, and thus kept sprinting, he COULD be a decent horse.

That will never happen, however, as the connections have made it clear from their actions that they are hell-bent on ruining this horse. Of that I am quite confident they will be successful.
