Im not sure its distance, even though 10f might be pushing it. He has potential, but has not lived up to it yet. How long can we keep saying he has potential? I love him, but Im starting to think he is not that good. Plus he cant overcome anything. He needs the in the clear, stalk/press trip. If not, he wont run. I think the Suburban will be perfect, 1 turn 9f. We shall see.

He's the routing version of The Factor. Needs it all his way or he's wilting.

Give him a situation like he had in his season debut and he can go 12f. Give him a situation where he's challenged and he can't go 6f.

Like most decent Bernardini's, he's gutless.
