On foreign exchanges he is about 4th wagering choice.
I'll use him as a saver with ATHENA and SISTERCHARLIE.

love to see the bolded. It's a red herring/misunderstood factor that adds value to these types.
The non-firm going stuff could be significant. Maybe the surface preference will hurt him today. Last 3 races were on 'good' turf and all three of those were strong enough to hit the board in the Arlington Million. However, I'm not an expert on going, and I haven't done any consideration of how non-firm those last three races were. You could have a point.
