WTF are you talking about with this nonsense? After moderate tries in his first 2 comeback races (Pat O'Brien/Kelso), he had won 3 of last 4 including beating McKinzie in the G2 San Pasqual on February 2.. And the loss was a 2nd to Gift Box who'll be co-fave with McKinzie in the Big Cap.

He was a 5yo racehorse fully capable of competing at the same level he did before the stallion season as shown by his performances. Of course Don Alberto & WinStar would have him in training.
