He could get loose or get first run if there is a definitive frontrunner.

I agree. I was impressed with his race in the Million. He looked like a beaten horse in the stretch when most of the field passed him, but he displayed a big kick even after running near the pace for the whole race and won the it. The only concern I have is what effect does shipping across the pond more than once have or has he had enough time between races to nullify any such effect?
