Probably because he already mapped out the plan and it doesn't make much sense to go off of it. I would say it might be a disaster. If he had a crystal ball and knew it was going to be a 4 horse field, maybe he'd run and have him trained accordingly. I think it's a smart move, not to go off plan. I also question the off/on theory with SK, at one time I mentioned it, but if you look at some of those off races, there's some excuses, not that he just bounced, one was it was a relatively paceless race and some others were he wasn't ridden correctly.
