HIGH LIMIT is Bobby Frankel\'s 3 yr. old hopeful training bullets down at Palm Meadows.
The colt won both his 2 yr. old starts very impressively at Delaware for trainer Anthony Dutrow
and was purchased privately for Frankel client Gary West [apparently via Frankel\'s guy, bloodstock
agent Mark Reid]. Recently, when I saw this colt\'s bewilderingly fast [very low single-digit] ThoroGraphs,
my eyes bulged. Sheesh! How can Frankel improve upon that? From Anthony Dutrow? Can you steroid
a colt that\'s already been steroided? [Yes, but you have to wait a while - lay the colt off and give him
some time. And that\'s just what Frankel\'s done.]
It should be noted that Frankel took MASTER DAVID from [the potent-vetted] Tony Mitchell last season -
off a ThoroGraph 4 - and COULDN\'T work his magic on the colt. [See above: Can you re-steroid?]
I haven\'t heard too much about HIGH LIMIT and was eagerly awaiting his 3 yr. old debut in the Swale Stakes
this coming Saturday at Gulfstream [an orgasmic coming-out party like Frankel\'s MIDAS EYES in the same
race two years ago?]. But now comes word that HIGH LIMIT will run in the Louisiana Derby in mid-March.
Not with Prado attached. But, interestingly, with Ramon, who rode him to two smashing wins as
a two year old.
With Frankel committed to only two preps, the La. Derby and [I\'ll assume] the Wood Memorial,
the colt cannot make any mistakes. He needs earnings to get into the Derby field.
HIGH LIMIT is one to watch.
