Yeah, but I personally feel like he doesn't need the lead to win.
He went in Kentucky because the derby is all about track position.
He went in Maryland cause I honestly think that Good Magic is the only horse they thought that could beat them.
If the pace scenario benefits them Mike will go, if they put some rabbits in, I think he will be forwardly placed but not necessarily duesling on the lead.
