Waaay to early to start making the RIP Gravestone for MTB. Personally Mike Smith I think has got to go. This horse shoulda woulda coulda won the Preakness.
This race is a total thow out. Been eight weeks, has some rust, bad ride and torrid pace, small field = loss
I think he'll take to the Saratoga Course very nicely. Should enjoy the deeper track. I say let's wait until after the Travers.
But having said all that if he does not redeem himself in the Travers we could be looking at another Funny Cide and or Giacomo. Will win a race here or there but not sustaining a Champion like run.
But again waaay too early to start writing any obits.
