I remember earlier this year right after the Kentucky Derby reading an article about Cot Campbell and they mentioned this 2 year old (B Bird). They have hopes for this guy and like the way he moves. <br /><br />Cherokee Run was runner up in the Preakness, and Yonaguska was a strapping, fast colt that Jerry Bailey once said could "certainly get 2 turns if he could just learn to relax more". Bailey raved about Yonaguska's size, strength and stamina. They basically were saying some of the same things about Kafwain. <br /><br />Suddenly each CR progeny has a horse that can get two turns pretty easily because, despite having tons of tactical speed, each can relax. And in the case of MM, not only could he relax, he could be taken off the pace and make a big, sweeping move late and make up ground late. Of course, MM's damsire was a multiple grade 1 classic distance winner in Peurto Rico, but he has been known mostly for milers.<br /><br />I agree its a trend worth watching. Keep up the good work. Good job with this Blog. - "Vicstu"Stuarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07986038903051290259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6923306023768834171.post-44553062207663891382009-08-13T16:29:52.633-04:002009-08-13T16:29:52.633-04:00Thanks SR Vegas.
