I remember Exaggerator being pinned until it was too late to make a credible move for the win. KA should save plenty of ground around that first turn then needs to find a path while hoping the speed comes back a bit. In Irad I trust.
If nothing else, you'll likely get a better value at the window now. Can either take the odds or bet less for the same profit and reallocate that bankroll.

Appreciate the advice. Thx for the others weighing in as well. I think I’m going to leave him on top of my tickets with EQ. Gonna see if I can find an overhead view of last years start from the gate also.
