The only way his post will hurt him is f he gets wipped out comming out of the gate. His speed wil enable him to get position and relax.With all of these horses experience and maturity, none are more profesional on the track. Even with just three races he races more maturely than any have. The only way you can tell he only has had only three races is by looking at his record. If you look at his record all you can see is a profesional very good colt that noone has found a way to beat.
