its not like he was backing up in his last race. He ran his last eighth in less than 13 seconds after being on the pace the whole race through splits of 1:11 and !:35 and 2. Why was that bad? He ran 9 furlongs in 1:48.
I just dont see how he doesnt compare to just about every horse in the field. He was barely beaten by the second choice last out. I realize that it is an extra furlong but none of us know for sure what the pace scenario will be like until the gate opens.
He may finish dead last but it is the same shot that almost every other horse has. There are vanity entries but i dont see this as being one. Not the SA derby runner up. Not the horse with the highest lifetime beyer. If it were my horse and i had the money i would enter him. I bet most owners or trainers would.
