He's OK, though, and better than I have given him credit for being.

He's interesting in that yeah, he's got good speed, but he's always got a hold of down the backside. He looks like a very rateable push buttoned horse. If they go fast early on in his upcoming races, I see no reason why he won't be able to sit again, though just a bit further back.
In his two previous races he ran the same way as today. Jock has a hold of him as he sits right near the pace. It was a little peculiar that he would be sitting full of run and then run evenly or not very impressively in the stretch, until today.
My theory being he wasn't that fit and was being raced into shape.
Who really knows what he's been beating, but I think he's got a perfect racing style and will be hard to beat in Ky.
Does anyone know if he's going to run another prep race before the derby?
