    G.O.T. REPORT

    Fairly average speed from the break.
    Has about an average running speed.
    This colt seems to really move when you ask.
    We won't know for awhile, but his legs may be good for the whole distance.
    Nice and dependable, always seems to run in top form.
    I'd say this colt would show noticeable improvement at steeplechasing.
    This colt wants to get the lead early, from what I've seen.
    Shows some interest in competition, which is good.
