Let me get this straight: they want to go longer with him but he's still 'fast' enough to be the pacesetter yesterday, and his maiden win. Of course, he didn't really run that fast the 1st split yesterday and the winner was wider and won in hand (real easy). So, it's not like cutting the pace really worked against him. Now, how exactly is going longer supposed to improve this horse?

I know:

once they get him down to GP, he can wire going longer.
