How is it aggressive at all? Im pretty sure he has the top last out beyer and won the local prep. I dont get this comment at all. Not trying to be a dick either, I just think its a super logical spot, they have been conservative enough with him facing FL Breds twice. Its time to see how good he really is.

I do agree with you and your not being a dick. The barn is usually very conservative and have been with him up to this point. The Allowance spot a couple back is one of those type of decisions I think. I do like the horse and was glad they didn't rush him as a 2 yr old. I'll be watching that's for sure. I just hope I can get 4/1 on him and the crowd dumps money elsewhere.
