If he had drew better and Ramon could have covered him and let him out at the last possible second...it would have been a different finish.

He looked like a winner at the 8th pole and then did his best hang job of his career.
There is just no telling how much and G1 wins he would have if he wasn't such a quirky horse once he hits the lead.
If the paid out at the 8t pole...he would easily be the richest runner in history.
It's sad that he pulls himself up every race because he is probably the best turf horse we have seen in the US in a long time.
