I've come full circle with this horse.
He won the Street Sense S. as the favorite, but he did it by default, basically inheriting the win with a complete dream trip.
Was then a +ROI bet-against for four races in a row, until the public finally caught on that he isn't very good.
I guess that's not accurate, as he was way overbet again in the $75k English Channel stakes at Gulfstream...
Anyway he was a wildly underlayed horse for a good while, and now the public along with the class is finally causing him to be priced appropriately.
At the same time, he seems to have recently improved. Wasn't clear if the Ohio Derby just stunk and set him up very well, but was visually impressive, and then he has changed hands and worked like a better horse than he was during the underlay sequence.
