He passed a dying pacesetter in Pablo del Monte, and a never-shoulda-been-in-the-race Ring Weekend to make up a length and 3/4ths in the stretch. Some may chose to call it a re-rally, but I might suggest it may have looked more impressive than it was.

That said, Roman Ruler already has a Belmont winner in Ruler on Ice, and the bottom of the ped is fine, so distance shouldn't be an issue. So maybe. Good Luck.
