\"HS out ran 19 horses in the derby by setting a good pace & was very game after SS went by him. I don\'t think distance is a problem.\"
I agree on the Derby, but I think his optimal distances are 8F-9f and not 10F. It\'s certainly not 12F. If he\'s rested now, comes back well, and continues to move forward, I think he\'ll be very tough in the Haskell against anyone. Unfortunately, I think this Belmont debacle lowered the probability of that happening even though I can\'t pin down the percentages.
