Default Better Talk Now

Looks like he is leaning towards the Arlington Million. His trainer says there is not enough pace for him in the Sword Dancer. My question is doesnt this horse bring his own pace with Shake the Bank? What difference does it make if there are other pace horses? Shake the Bank will be flying and in the Sword Dancer would be opening up a 10-15 length lead, forcing a few of the other horses with tactical speed to go faster than they want to go.

I think Better Talk Now would be better suited to run at Saratoga in a race he won 2 years ago, at a distance that suits him to a tee. I hope he stays at Saratoga.
