Not that he's that good, but I still like Cool Coal Man. However, I think Nick ought to just keep him sprinting. He's not more than grade 3 class as a router, if that and his best race last year was his sprint return, also at Gulfstream.

His best race last year was the overnight stake at Saratoga. He absolutely rolled that day. He likes Gulfstream and should be a very heavy favorite against that field.

But that was against lousy horses - I don't think this horse can route against any sort of decent horse - it's sort of a futile endeavor. He beat better horses in his sprint return last year (inluding Bold Start, I think) than he did in that race. I just think that it can't hurt to keep him sprinting.

Giant Deputy is a Vet Scratch..
