I wouldn’t think an owner or trainer would want to dismiss a potential G1 victory. I felt Castellano was beating Bolt like a rented mule early in the stretch. The horse actually did fire based on his solid final fractions but Justify had plenty in the tank after an easy trip. Bolt deceptively lost some ground but big picture was still hauling oats. Justify should have more pressure this weekend. The more I look at that race the more I think Bolt is, at a minimum, a must use in the trifecta.
