I fear Fly Down is another one of those BC Classic 3rd place finishers who thrive going 10fs with a hot pace to aid them.
Going 9fs - in smaller fields - at easier paces for speed horses (like the '10 Jim Dandy) - I think he'll underachieve. However, there really isn't much out there - so maybe he'll win a big race or two on the square.

He did run well in the Dwyer and there wasn't much pace in there...but the field sucked too. But yeah, he is at the mercy of pace most of the time. Is Haynesfield coming back? I mistakenly thought he was a Belmont horse for the course. I know he was the only other horse other than the winner that ran their race in the Cigar, but he's okay.
