Last year they went 1:11.01, and the top four horses after 6f's ended-up 8th, 12th, 10th and 11th. Obviously times on different days, on different tracks with different conditions cannot be compared without plenty of asterisks, including how this year's field ultimately shakes-out.

He went 1:09 and change last weekend over a wet track with absolutely zero pressure whatsoever. Easy leads translate to big figs and big performances all the time. He can win the race, but if he's going to be something-to-five in the starting gate, I can't see how he offers any value.
