Marcus Hersh sums up the maiden-breaking win by Juulstone :
March 7, race 1, Gulfstream Park, MdSpWt43k

Beyer: 81

1 1/8 miles, turf firm, 1:48.85

b. c. 3, American Pharoah–Hessonite, by Freud

Not your typical fifth-start maiden winner. They gave him three tries on dirt, and he got progressively worse, but a move to turf woke him up. RNA’s for nearly $500K as a yearling, so there have been hopes, and yes, he can run. Wears blinkers now and traveled smartly throughout, waiting patiently for a hole and bursting through with a nice turn of foot when it opened in upper stretch. Galloped out like a house afire. Will stay 10f at least, you’d think.

The gallop-out really was monstrous.

High knee action reminded me of Barbaro, who began on turf. Certainly a promising turn of foot.
I ran marathons. I saw the Taj Mahal by Moonlight. I drove Highway 1 in a convertible. I petted Zenyatta.

I love the way he moves and he seemed to get better after he crossed the wire. He really may be something special.

Mystic Guide (Ghostzapper/Music Note) broke his maiden at FG and became a TDN Rising Star. IIRC, Darley bred a lot of their A.P. Indy mares to GZ in 2016, so this guy might be the best they got from that cross in their 2017 crop.
