Thank you for a reasonable explanation.

I disagree strongly that he looks like a miler. I think he is just a bit immature right now and hasn't figured out how to handle the turns where he seems to lose ground. However, he has nice tactical speed and finished strongly when asked in a couple of 9f outings which tells me there is a lot more horse inside thig guy.
