This is what makes him so great … Leap To Fame’s resilience and recovery.
Look at him not long after that epic Miracle Mile win. He wants to go around again.

Of the beaten Miracle Mile runners - Captains Mistress had no clear run. What a massive few weeks she’s had.

Also Bulletproof Boy super unlucky after a check at the start. Ran a huge middle half & wasn’t far off them at the end

Keayang Zahara.
Hollywood Strip.
Leap To Fame.

How lucky are we to witness those performances all within an hour!

Zahara is just a freak!
Hollywood looks a ⭐️
And Larry, what a beast & champion.
