However, his Gulfstream Park Handicap was actually a legit race (probably easily his best in his last 10).

I guess it's worth seeing whether the track happens to have some incredible speed bias before totally dismissing his win chances. He could always hang around for the bottom of a tri or super

I heard he ran a -3 on TG in his last at CRC.
They needed to give hom a long break so he wouldnt bounce in the big race.
Very nice horse, that Ive been following since he was an on the lead 6f sprinter. 600 races ago.

those are hard to score , because it's a slow time, over a sealed track over a slow slow tiring track...

Visually he was working hard and almost sprinting the whole trip... Although he was clear...

He can be tough
