Yeah....he hasn't been the same since the Breeders Cup. The last thing he needs is the rail and an extra 1/2 furlong to deal with.
The race at Oaklawn should be an easier spot next week, and he looked great running out there last Spring.
My early picks for the SA Stakes races this Saturday.
SA Derby - Sam P
Arcadia - Porto Santo
Potrero Grande - Smokey Stover
The G3 race for fillies on the turf looks impossible to handicap.
