Destin (1261 Views)

I am curious your thoughts on Destin. Obviously his TG number for the TB Derby was huge, and his performance was flattered by subsequent wins by others (Outwork, Brody's Cause).

I remembered reading about TAP's runners off layoffs. There was a story last year from Beyer that shows he is 31% in stakes races off a layoff as opposed to 21% on what we would consider "normal" rest.(https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/sports/wp/2015/04/29/todd-pletchers-kentucky-derby-failures/)

With such a huge new top in his last race, and no previous TG figure even close...can he recover during the 56 day layoff and pair that figure?
