Hoping today is the coming out party for a colt who I think has a bright future.
Entered in the Gr2 Elkhorn at Kee going 1m1/2.
I'm far from a pedigree expert, but he handled 1m3/8 easily in his last, and his mother is out of a Sadlers Wells mare, so I'm guessing the distance won't be a problem.

Gets the big class test in only his 4th lifetime start.
Prat in the irons, nice ML of 10-1, I'm buying at anything around 6-1 or higher.

Like this colt as well.

He is my selection in a contest today, and will also be playing with real $.

Solid field of some veteran Graded Stakes turf runners, so we'll get a good feel for where he is at.

I like the horse but my concern is the fact that the trainer Abreu is something like 0 for 56 in graded stakes. I'm probably leaning more towards Highest Honors but will use Howe is some vertical and horizontal wagers.

Horse just won a $35K race at GP and is now 9/5 in a G2 at KEE?

One of the worst underlays I've ever seen. I needed him for the Pick 3 but couldn't bet him straight at that price.
P6 may carryover today

Prat must have been smoking that good good because he took him 3w on all three turns. Wasn't winning anyway, but that didn't help

Abreu is now 0 for 57 in stakes races.

BUMP...

After a dull performance at Kee, Abreu has entered him in the Gr1 Man O' War at Bel on Saturday.
He's in against a few of the same runners he faced in the Gr3 Elkhorn, plus an Appleby shipper who will likely go favored.
Ambitious spot to say the least...Prat stays aboard.
