from what i remember, he won the sanford and the gd 1 fall 2 yr old race at bel. as a three yr old he won the fountain of youth, then weakened a bit in the fla derby and the blue grass. he was fast, but just a bit lighthearted. from what i have seen, his blood is producing quick horses, with only a few running well in big long distance races. purge is one of the few. the dosage of RH's dam is 11.0. i am quite sure the horse will not get the classic distances next year. the remsen, however, despite it's 9f distance, doesn't always go to future routers. sometimes it's the least of distance challenge horses that takes this race. i havn't looked at it yet though (having a tough time getting any info from my parents computer).
