It's misleading because in 6 starts going 6 furlongs, he's been off the board just once (when he didn't lift a hoof in the Breeders Cup.) He's been 2nd three times and 3rd twice, missing by a head three back.

Maybe if Baffert had a time machine they could have run him in the Malibu, but it's restricted to 3 year olds and he is 5.

Where is Doc Brown when you need him with the flux capacitor?

My mistake on the Malibu reference . San Carlos Stakes on Feb 23 at 7f is a logical choice next out.

Actually, Flux Capacitor, would be an awesome name for a racehorse

Hopefully someone reads the thread, names a horse that and gives us a small stake. In retrospect, maybe the Cigar Mile might have been a good chance to see what he could do going longer than he has...but it's not like he disgraced himself yesterday.
