I see he won two races finished 2nd in a third race, the wiki page says. The Rebel stakes was a sloppy track and he was the heaviest horse (I was always baffled why people would go to the dog track and bet on some random ass dogs such as my dad, my mom mentioned a time where she noticed the sloppy track & figured out the heaviest dog who always had the longest odds had the advantage -- don't know the advantage a heavy horse has as I imagine the horses don't have much variation though I'm don't know more than a few horse breeds)

He won by Eight lengths at the Southwest Takes after advancing to a quarter-mile lead. Seems like he is fast & powerful.
