Analysis: A terrific performance in the Sunland Derby has me just as high as ever on him. It’s tough to get a gauge on how he’s going to compare to the top flight of horses in this crop because that race was so easy for him, however he won it so impressively…it could not have been any easier. It’s on to Kentucky for this one!
