To be all of that he's got something right.
"Royal Prodigy" Non Runner

Or was he and didn't want to start?

Come on and bathe ,under these skies
The sea the same hue I tell you no lies
" Tropical Blue" 2nd
Tropical Blue I am blue too that in this race
My second selection only got second place
( And sisters sorry I could not find a rhyme maybe I will just think along these lines )Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn
