First of all, he lost by a head or so in the Belmont....12 furlongs

He earned a Beyer Speed Figure of 119 in the Pacific Classic at 10 furlongs. He broke the Del Mar track record that day, and was still beaten some 2 lengths by Candy Ride, who earned a 124. Does the fact that he was beaten that day mean that he can't get 1-1/4?

Medaglia d'Oro was beaten a length by Pleasantly Perfect in the 10f Dubai World Cup. He was some 5 lengths in front of the third place horse.

Yeah, he couldn't get 10 furlongs.

and narrowly lost the 12f belmont, but yeah-he can't handle shorter.
