I suppose the pace will be fast here though. I just imagine him making a bold move and flattening out once again.
It's certainly possible he's a closing sprinter, but doesn't he have some excuses in his route races?

He hit the gate, lost a tooth and fought Gomez after that in the Rebel. Then he was wide, moved way too early in the Arkansas Derby and got tired at the end.

He might not be good enough, but I don't think we've seen his best yet. Maybe it'll be sprinting, but I think at 15-1 (hopefully) he deserves another shot with a clean trip (hopefully).
