I also think that he is at his best when he is able to make the lead and sort of run them into submission rather than stalk and pounce. Sometimes I get the feeling he intimidates horses, like in the Wood. It seemed like no one wanted to run near him that day. I'm totally making excuses for him, but I truly think he is at his best closer to the front, if not on the lead.
sounds like he needs a match race, or better yet, a walkover
