It was funny last year, because I used the same reasoning to dismiss Haynesfield's chances in the Cigar Mile. He promptly went out and lost a close photo.
Of course, his connections were duped and wasted the first half of the watching the horse get buried in the Westchester and the Met Mile. Then he went to the sidelines...
