That's my thought, too. His workouts were sharp, weren't they? And didn't he run in tandem with Nobiz during one of them?

I thought he fit this field pretty well. Until the race.

Never liked the horse but give him a break, 1st on poly they wanted to see if it suited him for Christ sake and obviously it did not, wheels were spinnin' but going nowhere. Bring him back to NY throw him in some lower levels on dirt and then see what happens.

He lost his only set already, no need to take everything away from the poor guy!!
