David Junior doesn't stay 12f on turf in top company, so they are sending him to the race at his favorite distance of 10f, which happens to be on dirt.
The mum's side IS very turfy - dam was unplaced and a full sister to Paradise Creek, a turf speicalist extraordinaire. The second dam had a Pleasant Colony SW son who equally good on turf and dirt, so that gives some hope, although that one's full brother Forbidden Apple was turf only. Even the second dam's Wild Again son Wild Event was a turf specialist (G1 winner), although he did win a dirt maiden race as a 2yo. Fifty-fifty he takes to dirt. Ya pays yer money and takes yer chance.

he is a four year old. i believe that he is a little overrated... its always a gamble going from turf to dirt. if he takes it who knows. He will have to beat a very tough field this year to win it!

David Junior sounds like a NASCAR driver.. I just can't get past that.
