I used him. He was shockingly bad. He didn’t look as good to me as Forte, but he had a few lengths of trouble in the Juvenile. I thought the gap wasn’t as large as the odds given Forte had some other good setups. Had he done some running and finished 2nd-4th I’d say, “OK” he’s not good enough, but that was obviously not him. Maybe something happened.
