My guess is that he'll again be reasonably competitive at AQU where he's proven and where the overall level is lower. Purses are high in that $30k/NW2xNYB conditition so if you win and lose the horse for $30, you get back some decent money. Meanwhile, you may make a few bucks over the summer with him. He might even be egibible for a few NYB stakes at the Lakes where he wont run into the likes of Golden Commander or Dave.

Yes, I agree with everything you said.
