Plus he has done better damage second off layoff.

On Paper, he is the speed and others will sit right behind him. If he hooks with a duel or trio then Into Mischief wins for fun.

He could not even get the lead against Wirefortwenty when the pace was well below grade 1 level, that would never have happened this spring which to me says this horse is not right. He should get a clear lead but he does not have the ability to run these horses off their feet, especially if this track plays like October....and at 9/2 he is a horrible play.
