I think he's a pure distance horse -- I would certainly play against him in the BC dirt mile this year. I don't think he's naturally fast enough to prefer a one-turn mile compared to a two-turn route.

Even if you look at his Moss Pace Fig line in the King's Bishop -- true sprinter/milers don't run weird lines like that.

Sure -- if he gets an easy uncontested lead in the mud over a wet-track going a one-turn mile - he will look like a miler.
