His race in the Wood wasn't exactly a "clunker". He was 4 wide after breaking alertly on the clubhouse turn (tough to do in a 6 horse field, even with the short run) and 3 wide on the 2nd turn. He tried the winner at the top of the stretch, and when he couldn't get by and got passed by Sightseeing JV shut him down, so the margin of loss was a little higher than it should have been.
My concern with the Wood was the come-home time was less than stellar.
He has a very good chance to hit the board IMO.
