Analysis: He beat our number two ranked horse last time out so I guess it’s about time he makes the rankings. Even though that last race was a seven furlong sprint, I do believe the horse will stretch out nicely. He’s not on the same level as some of his stable mates, but with a little luck I could see him sneaking into the Derby.
