Analysis: Was moving up in class in a big way in the Tampa Bay Derby, but stepped up huge and ran a tremendous race. He had to do the dirty work in the race by setting the pace, and nearly was able to hang on to win the race. This kind of improvement is very exciting this time of year, and he should get better off this latest effort. The only negative might be the fact he may not like going longer, but his level of improvement caught my eye.
