Interestingly, Bill Farish of Lane’s End describes “ . . . he was a sprinter – bred to be a sprinter, was a sprinter, looks like a sprinter – but he’s gotten horses that can run on the turf and run at a mile and a sixteenth and, in some cases, longer,” Farish said. “That’s something that I don’t think people expected from him, was two-turn horses. He’s been very successful doing that, and that increased his popularity a lot.”
NO doubt his popularity will continue to increase as Improbable moves up the Leaderboard.
