Lost EVERY single two-turn stakes race he ran in (Ky Derby, Lexington, Goodwood, SA Hcp, San Bernardino, BC Classic, Native Diver to name some). Point being that he excelled at one-turn races but was nowhere close to the same when it came to two-turns.

Right, but because a mile and a quarter at Bel isn't QUITE two turns is pretty unfair to say he couldn't go long.
