Richiebee,

"Don't understand the continued dialogue over the Louisiana Derby. Does it have to do with High Limit's regression?"

If I owned High Limit and wanted to continue running him against high quality horses, at this point, I would try sprinting him.

He was successful routing twice. However, both times he had easy leads in a slow pace (and that FG track was highly suspect). Every other time he has looked dreadful in the stretch regardless of the what the speed figure said. He may just be a 6F-8F horse that can run further when he gets it all his own way. I suggested that was a possibility before the LA Derby and considered it a risk that was being weighed properly. However, he got it all his own way on that surface that day. So we didn't get to find anything out.

If he fails sprinting, then it will be obvious he's not moving forward and will need a drop in class.
