And Sun King would be coming from farther back than Silver Train had to last year.

I agree completely. If there was a BC race on dirt run anywhere between 7 and 9 furlongs Sun King would be a big threat. I think the smart move for Zito to make with this one would be to forget about the Breeders' Cup altogether and concentrate on the stakes races run at 7, 8, and 8.5 furlongs. He could pick up his share of Ws in those.
