I would be against both next out.
Stronly disagree. He crushed that field, and while the competition hasn't been great every race he has run this year has been very fast. He could dominate the Whitney and Woodward if Bob sends him. I think its pretty simple, he has matured a lot of horses are never given the chance.

Time will tell, I am almost certainly going to be against him at 2/5 next out unless he shows up in some non competitive spot where there is no field.

Pace for the Met was one of the slowest in the last decade, which is all i have figures for.

Hard to believe he wont be in the Whitney. Baffert wont run him vs Arrogate now, and already mentioned the Pegasus as a long term goal.
