Just to be clear, Limehouse has run two routes this year (his last two races), and both were in the 3-4 range. I vaguely remember the race you are referring to in February, which I think was under a mile (I don't have the sheets in front of me). Even if you are correct, there are ONLY 5 or 6 faster than that February sprint?
These have all done better than 3 running over a mile (something Limehouse has not done).
Quinton's Gold Rush
The Cliff's Edge
Tapit
Lion Heart
Pollard's Vision
Minister Eric
Imperialism
Pro Prado
Songofthesword
Master David (ran a 2 as a 2yo)
Borrego
Friend's Lake
Read the Footnotes
St. Averil
If you are looking for him to get back to the February race going a mile and a quarter, aren't you concerned that he hasn't been able to do that going two turns, when ALL of these horses have already done it?
You can have him. Good luck. HP
