I'm pretty sure he will be disgusted and be dull if the pace is moderate.On the other hand, if they give him a sharp pace,he will look totally different out there(his stride will look great,and he will be ready to make a run towards the front.) When they go into the turn,if he is within 5 lengths of the lead,then he usually won't run well(the reason he ran reasonably well last time was the pace was decent,not hot,but decent..he wanted it hotter..Nakatani didn't oblige him.).If he is 7 or 8 lengths out of the lead,then the pace is probably pretty good ,and he has a chance to make the board.If he is like 10-15 lengths back,and they are running a 22'3 or something,then G haterz beware.
