He ran tremendous, the track was pretty fair shaded slightly inside saturday. He was closer to the pace, because he had to be, and still finished meaning he did not need the race to fall apart to run well. He was wide as well against that track.
He paired back the Travers in my book which shows improvement.
He seems like a horse for course but at a big number he could get into the tri in the classic.
