$550k yearling for Melander

Greenshoe out of Mission Brief....

Not a bad first start. Nursed around the turns and Marcus let him trot late and showed a little burst. Time will tell if he's any good but looked okay today. For 500k you'd have hoped he made the races and some money back at 2.

As are you to all your English teachers. 

We had no idea about how mediocre to below average Greeenshoes' are. Thanks.

Greenshoe babies generally can’t trot. Lots of burned up money on Greenshoe babies.

Not being bet in a mediocre Maiden race showed how he was going to drive. Careful and not concerned about winning. closed in stretch allowing him to stretch his legs......
Figure his next start would be at the Meds.... bigger turns / longer stretch.  Another start or two, you gotta see what you got.

Has Melander and Tetrick split?  I notice Dexter getting all Melander horses when Mathis isn’t driving
