Yeah Sherman didnt like that move either. Somewhat of a head scratchier. Bring him back home and give him a little break... Ran a really good race yesterday considering his trip...

He was uncovered throughout, but haven't we been told he likes being kept outside of horses in the clear, and not taking dirt in his face, like the PA. Derby?

Which one is it?

Exactly. If that is his preferred trip as they say, then he's gonna have to be a super horse to win when he goes up against real competition. That wide and clear trip will get him absolutely annihilated at Royal Ascot.

I'm all for being sporting and thought they made the right choice going to Dubai, but going to Ascot is dumb.

He has no real shot in any race they are pointing him to.
