I wrote about this in my Handicapping Insights column on BRIS two weeks ago. He was completely out of the bridle at the top of the stretch but then kicked in and ran the fastest last quarter mile. It's not like he had any momentum going into the stretch. The riders say they hit a wall of noise at that part of the track and maybe it scared him. He had no traffic and it didn't look like it was kickback. I know if you do not expend energy in the first mile you might have some left in the last quarter mile but I thought it was impressive what he did. I love him being by Afleet Alex for the Belmont. Pletcher won the Belmont with Rags to Riches, a daughter of Belmont winner A.p. Indy and with Palace Malice, a son of Curlin who Rags to Riches beat by a nose. Now he has a son of a Belmont winner that is a proven source of stamina.
