Might be better in Louisiana or Delaware.

i agree, + he's an 0/18 cheap mdn claimer...
"on paper" = too slow, no stamina, 'doesn't like to win'
key would be the high% trainer.
Would the horse thrive and finish a little better?
Then he could control a route.
One more win after maiden seems pretty likely.
Then you could get 'stuck' with a horse and have to go to LAD, DEL, FL, MTN...,
Or you never know, he get on a roll...
He could be the next CIGAR
lol, no.
it's funny how the game right now is so much about the trainer...
Not a huge fan of that aspect, but it is what it is.
If you play that game, these type of plug-n-play bargains are at least worth a look by someone who has some knowledge in that area.
Could be something (besides too slow, stamina), that makes it a bad deal.
Homebred for a fairly low% trainer. Got a little bit of early foot, and the fundamentals are solid enough. Dirt footing seems solid enough. Just needs to improve stamina (and the overall speed fig).
Braddy is doing better of late, be it form cycle, or a little bit softer of meet, currently.
Slight dange that Braddy and Prado could trip into a win today with him, but I am not too scared, and as a 'betting proposition', I think he's a cool horse to consider 3rd/4th in dime superfectas, w/ maybe a backup 2nd in exacta, if you can key another known contender or two 1st/2nd as well.
