Keyed Entry ran on that horrible sloppy track at Gulfstream which also ruined First Samurai, and then ran back way too soon in the Gotham (?)...

Second of June ran back as well after the FOY and wasn't even three at the time yet (chronologically)...

FuSam.. who cares?

Nafzger will turn this colt out and give him every minute he needs to recover.
Also, Keyed Entry and First Samurai both had distance limitations. They were better suited for a mile or 8.5F and so where the sires (yes I remember GC in the BC Classic getting 10F-that was done on heart and talent) Street Sense has a better shot at 10F being by Street Cry, who won the Dubai World Cup and the Stephen Foster.
