his nw4 race going long at the mountain looks slightly better than this one going short arkie breds. if this guys ready he could win. i just wonder why he isn't going long? my answer could be that he isn't ready to.

I agree. That's the obvious question and probable reason why most will eliminate him.

Unfortunately we don't get to interview the trainer. His three races at 6fl are at OP. Has positional speed and he's fresh. The 4 week gap in workouts is more than compensated by the last two works. Been at OP since early January.

I see it as 80% that this is a workout/race. Easy to toss based upon record at distance and track. Logic says non-contender.

But the juicy odds have me willing to donate.
