I bet him in the Travers, and yeah the trip sucked, but he doesn't want anything to do with 10F against real horses. He'll be a beast in the Jerome if they turn him back.

Winning a leg of the Canadian Triple Crown is kind of like winning a leg of the Big Apple Triple... sure, it pads your bankroll, and if Mercury Rising won the Mike Lee I'd be thrilled, but it's sort of like being the leading scorer on the freshman basketball team when you're a senior... don't be looking to score chicks off of the accomplishment.
