Churchill may move the colt up considerably.<br /><br />I'm keeping a close eye on this colt. One day, he will just out run the field.Barry Reed Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13903316583409905690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6923306023768834171.post-217811650711265602011-02-26T08:14:19.729-05:002011-02-26T08:14:19.729-05:00Barry,

The Florida and Kentucky Derbies are his main objective.<br /><br />Good luck today!Calvin Carterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10135059434890408890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6923306023768834171.post-2048359585574050712011-02-26T00:16:19.277-05:002011-02-26T00:16:19.277-05:00Hi Calvin, never had much luck with horses at Gulf...Hi Calvin, never had much luck with horses at Gulfstream Park, coming off the New York tracks as a prep for 2 year old.<br /><br />Don't see it changing now.....<br /><br />Soldat posted 108 beyers. That extremely impossible to outrace off a layoff. Thus, he looks to be come a solid Florida Derby favorite with a repeat performance. Any other year, would the 108 be heavily favorite ?<br /><br />I think so, and the WOW horse.....Barry Reed Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13903316583409905690noreply@blogger.com
