I fear Wilko isn't quite good enough for this level. He won the BC Juvie because he was fitter than better horses like Afleet Alex. Definitely can hit the board, because he keeps on running, just not fast enough.
Wilko is the crux of the stupidist bet I ever made. BC at Lone Star, Pick 3. Single Ouija Board. Three horses in the Mile, including my boy Singletary (it's a long story, was on his bandwagon before he made his first start), then was going to go All in the Juvie. But then thought - Hey, those Euros never do anything, I'll leave the two of them off, save myself $6. Ri-i-i-ight. I cheap myself out of so many good scores.
