There are milers and there are others, Lazarus is one of the very mighty "others", sure he will improve his mile racing ability the more he is confronted with it and tries to adjust to it, BUT the horse is not a miler just like Blacks A Fake wasn't , Pure Steel wasn't, Rowley Alla was, Gammalite wasn't and Popular Alm was. Lazarus is the best horse produced in the Southern Hemisphere in probably 25 or 30 years or more, no horse has done to top class stayers in staying races what he has done in my memory and that only goes back to the late sixties.

I would love to see him race McWicked over 2 miles!!! It would be a slaughter, if the people who bought him have any nouse whatsoever, they would be trying to line something like that up and show the world what he is REALLY capable of.
