Analysis: Consider me unimpressed by his “win” in the Fountain of Youth. First off I do not believe he should have been placed in front of Upstart. Second, I question how good the race was in the first place. They absolutely walked home in that race…and at one point this horse looked completely done. He’ll have to prove it to me again before I rank him very high.
