if LOM stays sound (a huge if), he will most likely run a few more huge figs sprinting (and maybe a few routing). the horse is flat out fast...

class,
the Pa race was not that slow of a pace. that was a brilliant run for a lightly raced three year old. i think he ran about :47 for the first half, and still ran a blazing final time. in the strub, i don't think the horse enjoyed the company on the front end though. he got nervous and just took off. horses with sprinter type pedigrees (dam has a dosage of 11.0) who are facing pace pressure for the first time going long are risky propositions. still, let him run alone on a :47 pace next time he routes, and i bet he keeps going.... either way, that was a tough betting race.
