Noone will be able to say he never faced a full field or adversity.
Then we can get our answer as to how good he is.
I worry about Lava Man and Invasor, otherwise Bern is a stone cold lock....That being said, I have heard some sheet players talking about Brother Derek cycling back, also a couple that think Strong Contender might be a live longshot if he can get back to his huge number a couple races back

Biggest shots in my opinion are LM, Invasor & David Junior.

Ditto Brother Derek.
TG wise I have heard that he has run in the neg-3 range and that his last race pointed towards him running huge. I am still new at pattern reading but the person I heard this from is a highly respected handicapper at Arlington. he will be real long so I will probably be using on a $1 pick three saver or something.

Rag wise, I would think that you are right on with the '0' saying though, TG wise I am thinking neg4ish
