Default Texas Fever?

I have him on my "horses to watch list" and noticed he ran 5th yesterday. What the heck happend to this horse? Last year he really looked like he was going to be a pretty nice stick. I had thought that once Stidham put him back on the turf that he'd turn things around, but as of yet that has'nt happend.

I know Steve really liked him and am curious to hear what he thinks.

Not sure what to think. He was set back by the run in the Juvenile Turf and only returned to the level of that try in his start previous to Wednesday's, and that is a sign of a horse that isn't 100%. He ran pretty well at KEE despite being wide every step. He couldn't finish though. He's just turning out to be very ordinary.
