based on his new and improved running style, and judging by his whitney effort, i wouldn't say 10f is out of his realm.

Don't forget he ran in the Classic last year. So he's 0 for 2. But at that time, he hadn't learned how to relax yet. So as you said, he's different now. From his Whitney effort, he doesn't look like he's stopping at 9 furlongs. I don't even consider last year.
