Analysis: Six races…six wins! His latest victory in the California Cup Derby was his first going around two turns, and he absolutely dominated. He’s bred to go the mile and one quarter so not many were surprised by the performance. Obviously the big question still remains: How will he do outside of California bred competition? We will find out the answer soon in the San Felipe Stakes on March 13th.
