well, since he came out of the race healthy, the trip wasn't bad, he didn't entrap, didn't bobble the start--what excuse is left but he didn't like the track?
besides, horses work well quite often and then stink on race day. who knows, maybe the surface changed between work and race.
at any rate, he only ever lost at oaklawn--so i'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
altho, there's always the oh so truthful we don't know what happened, he just lost line...
