It doesn't because I think it's always been that way with him.

Maybe the chances go up even a little more as his age gets older ... but the horse has made improbable stunning form reversals on three different occasions before in his career ... it doesn't take much to be a top horse out there now .. let alone a top Cal bred.

Sure - I would bet against him rising to be a top horse out there ... but I would have done the same the three prior times he did.

It's probably a good thing if the connections are having their motives questioned and people want to call them out .. and assume the worst will probably happen. It will put pressure on them to be realistic if things don't seem to be going rosy.
