This 2-year-old colt showed so much potential gamely winning his recent racing debut over straight maidens at Presque Isle Downs that he is nominated to several upcoming stakes events. It is worth noting that he won his debut in front-running fashion, and there was a significant gap back to the third place finisher. He is out of the Mineshaft mare So Explosive, and is from a standout Phipps family. His second dam is a half sister by Storm Cat to Eclipse Award winner Inside Information, to Grade 1 winner Educated Risk, and to stakes winner Diamond. His family also includes champion Smuggler, multiple graded stakes winner Gone Astray, Stratospheric, Quick As Lightning, Consequence, and Strategy.
