Well,he is a very big horse that doesn't break well from the gate.It hurt him in his debut,and in this race as well.Surprised they haven't tried blinks yet,but maybe HONU(is that her name?)can shed some lite on whether they have explored that yet.The horse just outside of him came over on him at the start.I guess he got hurt there(somewhat)and mentally "out of it" after that.2 horses in that race that certainly don't have trouble breaking from the gate are Principle Secret,and especially Stormello(a really good horse out of the gate.)Spot the Diplomat did not break all the great(if he did,then I think Alex (on P.S.)would have chosen to lay off him (instead of leading the race.)
