Here is my question.
What do you think of colts like Victory Pete, El Gato Malo, Bob Black Jack etc?
Col. John's races this spring were okay, and his Santa Anita Derby performance was pretty nice. But who was he really running by in that race?
He certainly might turn out to be a very nice horse, but at this point he hasn't really beaten anybody that I think is even remotely good.
