Analysis: He’s a horse everyone is very excited about up to this point. It took him five races to break his maiden, but when he finally did it was impressive. He followed the maiden win up with another impressive Allowance win at Gulfstream Park, and the second place finisher in that race came back to win. Ready to see what he can do against stakes company next time out, and the rumor is he’s targeting the Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn Park.
