I'm trying to make sense of War Pass's trip. He battled a rabbit through some pretty fast fractions and only lost by a nose or a head. On one hand, I respect the horse because he was able to tough it out against a speedball and still be competitive all the way up to the wire. On the other hand, I have to wonder how much that trip took out of him. I guess there is still enough time before the derby that maybe it won't matter.
Any thoughts?

i don't know that i'd call what happened early on in the wood a battle. that other horse couldn't keep up, was all out trying, and just finally gave it up. since war pass didn't run a lick in his last, i'd think there could be room for improvement off that race yesterday. now, whether he can get the 10f of the derby....i just don't know. did he prove yesterday he can still be a force to be reckoned with? yes, i think he is. but i think he is best suited to a mile or so.
