Does he prefer the rail, sure. But, why should we discount him for it. He's very good on the rail or off. If I were you, I'd try and get in touch with the connections and tell them that winning races isn't really important. It's figuring out if a horse can move 3,4,5 wide around horses and run the same as if he rides the rail. Let me know what they say.

Thanks...I'll put that call in right away see where it gets me.
