If FFC runs poorly at Pimlico, will that stop Lukas from running him at 12f in the Belmont? I doubt it.
I don't know if it the owners or Lukas are making the call on sending him to Pimlico, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if it is DWL's call. Why he can't see that this horse is a one-turn horse.....I'll never know. EVERYONE else on the planet can see it, but he can't.

everyone knows lukas' record in the the tc. i would guess he has been here enough times to know what he can, or can't get out of a horse. it's a shame that he is spotlighted for his glaring disappointments, rather than for those times he won, or came close. funny that now it's the going wilds who are mentioned, not the charismatics.
