I'm still torn on this one. I get shades of Tapit Trice will this guy. He's got the breeding but the figures don't match the eyes (and TT fit both). The raw time on his final 1/8th would have actually lost several lengths to horses in other big preps. I do envision him sitting a little closer which would help. I have little doubt he's going to pass plenty of horses but I'm skeptical he's got a true rocket that will propel him to the winner's circle, barring an epic collapse up front. We shall see. Post position could also be a factor for him more than most. I'd fear a inside draw. As of now, I'll plan on using him defensively on top.
