My question is do most on here view this horse as a late running sprinter or a horse that truly has some "push button" quality and can make some noise on Saturday. I was thinking that between 9-1 and 12-1 would be fair odds enough to bet. I just wanted some other opinions in that maybe i am making too much of the Ark Derby effort.

He's my top pick. The ThoroGraph sheets have him listed as 3wide2wide, which is ridiculously understating it. If Oaklawn had Trakus, I'd love to see how much ground he covered, he spent most of the race losing ground. Dance City ran an awesome race and stayed on, but Sway Away, to me, ran a better race considering the overwhelming ground loss and an abyssmal ride from PVal that looked like he thought The Factor was the only horse in the race.
