I actually like Southwest a little bit, too.

Gus has a VERY good record when tabbing a horse like this... An uncanny record in fact...

As I mentioned on ATR on Friday, his effort in the Stanton @ DEL was better than it looks on paper (Check out the replay). I take the 1/2 glass full approach. I observed a horse that had an awkward start, made a premature move on the turn, and finished strongly including an impressive gallop out.
The connections must think highly of him as did Mandella (who had him on the West Coast earlier in the year) to enter him in this event. The outside post position doesn't bother me because of the long run to the clubhouse turn and Johnny V has enough savvy to put him in the best position to be successful. It's almost guaranteed that he'll be close to his 20-1 ML with division leaders Sailor's Cap and Gio Ponti bidding for favortisim. In addition, his low BSF will help his price. Along with Sailor's Cap, he's the only one that his visited the winner's circle at CNL.
