Timeform and beyer figures do not get a horse around a 10f track - only inheritance does.

Because a colt is not made up from strictly his sire and dam. He is made up from the inheritance of his speed/stamina balance from the elite sires and mares in his chart going back the generations. The chefs give him his 10f but the mares tip the balance away and shift it away from the 10f. Midnight Bourbon's optimum distance is 9.25f. He will gain extra lengths on a sloppy track, but it still wont be enough. Competive on the Derby Trail, but don't fall for his high beyers at that distance. He will be competitive in the Derby as usual, but he will pack it in at the top of the stretch. He is a good horse, but his mares configurations unfortunately steal away some of that inherited stamina. Think Whitmore.

I haven't been on this website in about a year and I decided to take the time to read this. Still the same. Midnight Bourbon has absolutely zero chance of getting the 10f of the Kentucky Derby. The combination of his elite mares and chefs will get him an optimum of 9.25f. Which means he will be competitive on the Derby Road but he will never ever hit the wire in the Derby. Bank on it.

Le Vent has been withdrawn from his much anticipated return to racing this week with the same recurring problems in his left front leg. The waiting game returns.

He can't answer that question because he didnt write it, he stole it from my website. He has absolutely no clue what he pasted up there and it makes me absolutely sick to see people steal my work and post it as their own.

Hey Estoril. You do realize that copying and pasting other people's work and words as your own is probably the most pathetic thing you can do. You should source it. I am telling you this because I wrote that and it comes from my website. Absolutely disgusting the amount of people that rip off other people's work and words.

We can only hope! He would destroy them.

If they are pointing to the BCC at Santa Anita, maybe they would consider a race like the Pacific Classic but I think its doubtful. Yes, same damsire but Le Vent's full pedigree is way beyond Aerolithe's. This horse is loaded with stamina and he's fast as lightening. Its very hard to get info on him and its killing me. :)

This guy has been withdrawn from the February Stakes on Feb 17th due to "minor leg issues" (again). His prep for the Dubai World Cup. Unfortunately, it looks looks like a start there will not be happening now.
