I thought the manner of his San Carlos effort was a bit of a fluke as he broke poorly that day, but it looks like the horse has learned to settle off the pace.

In general, I wouldn't think sprinters stretching out in the Met would be a good proposition, but he seems to be an interesting exception now.

At any rate, Mike Watchmaker seems sure to do a complete 180 with his "Watch" comment for the horse ("Doesn't seem at tops despite recent win").
