I don’t think he’s trained hard enough. Most of these horses have been training since November, December, or January. They put him away after The Preakness, and I don’t think he’s fit now. I thought maybe another race would take the edge off and maybe he’d settle down in the Classic. Nope they took him back to that training center in Kentucky. Some of the others haven’t raced regularly, but they’ve been training regularly.
