Does he prefer the rail, sure. But, why should we discount him for it. He's very good on the rail or off. If I were you, I'd try and get in touch with the connections and tell them that winning races isn't really important. It's figuring out if a horse can move 3,4,5 wide around horses and run the same as if he rides the rail. Let me know what they say.
