Big jump in competition and distance usually spells doom for a horse like this, especially one that hasn't been particularly fast IMO.

Pros:

The horse posted a 109 Equibase figure last out which bests either of Instagrand's starts.

Horse is a Mr. P top line and those have had no shortage of success on the Derby trail for the past few decades.

Horse is female family 1-n. Female family 1 has had tremendous success in the Derby.

Horse has excellent pilot assuming he stays up.

Cons:

Horse has beat nothing but did beat the hell out of the nothing.

Dosage profile doesn't scream sprinter however it's not very deep with 14 total points and none in the solid or professional position.

Horse has posted some blazing fractions but has yet to route. Is it pure speed or can it ration some going longer. Nine panels in the FL Derby is a quarter mile longer than he has run.

The three year old crop appears to be superior than previous couple years, at least the cream of the crop. He's going to face some stiff competition and will likely need to secure the place pool in FL Derby without a quick turnaround in the Lexington in order to secure a gate in Kentucky.

My take is the horse will do well up to 8.5F. I'm skeptical he's going to be a classic distance type.

Funny you mention Instagrand, F2. I have been waiting for that horse for a while now and my impression of both horses has been wait and see how they handle the extra distance. Both horses have shown the same high early and declining late speed. Can either one of them learn to ration it out better? Will they like the better competition?


Wait and see approach.
