Well ok, outside of figs -- he looked good winning an allowance race from just off the pace.
Then he looked like he had it all his own way on the front end of a stakes race including showstoppers Air Commander, Level Red (see yesterday's stellar last-place finish), Dee Rain, and Grapelli who didn't run a lick, and you have not only a horse who was suspect as far as figures go -- but also highly overbet based on the way his stakes win played out and the ones who traipsed home behind him.
I know you're sad about losing your Derby pick from way back, but yesterday just confirmed what a lot of people thought -- that he was going to have the same problems as Brother Derek did after that one showed the way in races very similar to Blue's San Felipe.
