The only 3yr old that could even be competitive with him is Brilliant and I am not even sure about him. You would think Tagg would squeeze as many races against 3yr old horses in as possible, but if they are looking at a big 4yr old year with him then I can see why Tagg is spacing his races. We don't know the horse either and Tagg does. I heard he came out of the last race fine but who knows, maybe the last race took a lot out of him.
