Since he's not all that fashionable a pedigree, what do you think are the odds Farmer will run him as a 5-year-old?
i'm hoping they keep him out there, esp if he doesn't manage a gr 1 win the rest of the year. he's right THERE. it will do wonders for him at stud if he can get it.

a lot of horses need a perfect set up. very few are able to run well regardless of the way the race plays out. war emblem immediately comes to mind! he either won or was off the board in every race. no joke!! if he got eyeballed, he backed right up, had to have the lead. very, very few who are tractable, rateable, truly push button. they ruin it for all the others!
