I also remember Afleet Alex going to his nose in the stretch of the Preakness, but he overcame that adversity.
why is it ridiculous to feel that this horse may not in the league with the horses that you've mentioned? I was under the impression that War Pass still had something to prove. Personally until I see a 2 turn route on a fast track against top competition, I hold a question mark in my mind. It seems that many have already made up their minds that he's untouchable.
