If I get a price, I'll try him. His figures might not be good enough but he was under pressure throughout, plugs or not, they pressed him, in decent fractions, and then drew off easily, while running very greenly, and accelerating the last 1/8th and qtr. I'm counting on his footwork being better today. Of course, he's also up against it if (his jockey feels that) he needs the lead.
