Thought "Lute" might be vulnerable in that spot for two reasons....Short turnaround (for him anyway) and his breathing issues. Did seem like he got hit by a 2x4 around midstretch. Of course I wasn't bright enough to back that up at the windows..
Also thought Nobiz had a lot taken out of him by the BC Mile on the very soft turf. I know people like to beat him on this board but I find any horse coming off a race on a very soft course needs some extra time..
