I thought he looked really good on paper and the first 3/4 of a mile. Seemed to really struggle in the stretch.

Funny how people watch a race and see it so different.... "(Ortiz) said basically from the quarter-pole home he had absolutely nobody around him to keep him focused. It's only his second career start. He started to maybe let up a little bit before the wire and he had to get after him a little bit. He said on the gallop out when he heard the horses coming behind him and tried to pull him up, he tried to break again."

This is the race I did video work for, along with races 6 and 11, the other mile dirt races. This race was faster than the reported time by a couple lengths.

beautiful horse, Chad's got him muscled-up and in great condition
He still hasn't flashed a Grade-1-brilliant type of performance
Today he likely won against the grain/bias, so you have to upgrade that a little bit.
He's been highly regarded/touted so there isn't a ton of value until he gets to the big dance and faces his 'coworker'(fellow Shadwell Stables runner Mohaymen).

I was really against him today. He proved me wrong today. Still don't think he's that good. They seemed to really struggle in the latter part of that race. 87 beyer. Once again NY series is lacking for Triple Crown talent.

He ran well there is no doubt. There is something to consider if he is your choice for the Run for the Roses; no Gotham winner has won the Ky Derby since 1980
