What do you think?

A. Too early to tell (but go out on a limb)
B. Potential one to recon with
C. Self Destruct again better
D. Not sure or don't care at this point

What's not to like the way he ran last!!??

He didn't beat anything last out (3/5 was a massive overlay) but he's got a lot of ability. One of the top prospects in my eyes.

There wasn't much behind him. He's only about as good as American Pharoah, Texas Red, Firing Line and Dortmund right now.

Agree but not many "hopefuls" are beating anyone right now. Right now we don't know who is running at all and who the hopefuls are but he did look good going down the lane and finished strong. He ran like it was a work out to me but we'll see and there's so much more just to wait for.

Let's call it a historical hunch.

His gallop out after the 1 mile Sham Stakes left a lot to be desired. He comes up a little short on pedigree.
