Why exactly is this horse dangerous?

Do you expect them to go, essentially, 1-2-3 around the track in this year's MILE? Doubtful. Do you expect him to shut off the rail late stretch and thus block what might've been a winning move by a horse to his inside, again? Good luck.

Terrible action by this horse in the lane today. Either he's sore as hell or he doesn't handle dirt well. (From the pan shot, he handled the POLY real well).

I find it comical that the first comment by a prominent DIRT LOVER was something to the effect that the horse had wasted its time on POLY.
