He had a nice pace setup - but yeah... he did run what passes as a respectable figure in this crop and like you mention maybe shipping problems could have possibly had a very slight negative impact on him.

I don't know though ... freaking Nacho Friend - first off of a 7+ month layoff and first time beyond 6 furlongs sits just 3 lengths off that strong pace - makes first run while 4 wide the whole way around the turn ... and he still has enough left to finish 3rd beaten just 3 lengths.

The 5th place finisher in the race was beaten less than 5 lengths - and he had never won on dirt before and was beaten back to back in NY Bred N1X alw races.

I need to see one more from Awesome Act to get a better gauge.
