Projects as the one to catch; 2nd-time Long is often an improvement angle; wanted to race on the lead in last like he did in the SAR starts but the 1 post and a sloppy track may have contributed to his lack of gate speed
then faded against much tougher-Grade 1 company.

Is by a Grade 1-stakes-winning sire who took 4-of-9 dirt routes (1,7M); is out of an 0-for-4 dam who was 0-1 in dirt routes producing 1-2-dirt-router Alfa Bird (54K); trainer does some of his best work with repeat winners;
style suggests today's added distance won't be an issue but must overcome a ground-losing draw. -Art Gropper
