Now he could have improved as a horse, especially given the trainers ability with three year old colts but I would be a little bit concerned backing POTN at a short price.

POTN has never raced on dirt and wont until the Derby. His former trainer (Mott) said that he trained fine on dirt before his debut. The only reason he went to grass was because he was looking for a route and the colt was race fit and ready early in the Saratoga meet. The only place to get a route in NY before September is on grass.
IWR handled dirt in NY and was beaten a nose by the "best horse" in Cali (not saying he's the Derby winner, but he's beaten everyone out there except The Pamplmousse) so I think that makes him a legit contender for the classics.
