In my one viewing so far, Notional had no excuses except time between races. Adore the Gold, Stormello and Scat Daddy were the three that ran harder to begin with. Notional sat so pretty in 4th. Had to go wide on the turn home, but with a trip that easy, it was right there for the taking and he could not make it. Dont know if another 5 weeks will help.

Actually Notional sat 5th as I rewatch. No excuses other than he will be ready for the Derby. The trip was so nice for this horse.
