His pattern is

13-sealed slop

3 - kinda told you with this one there was some ability

15 - Rating gambit non effort. Complete Toss

3 - That should have been a Zed, Zero and I mean it.

-4 he improved 4 points.




I like the pattern. I like it alot. This is a horse with tons of raw ability. So raw and so much ability its hard to say whats next. Did he really run too hard. Or is he about to rock the horse world. The beauty is, they are dismissing him.

p.s. pattern is not the panacea
