even though he came home what, a laboring 3rd not making up much ground, from a distance/travel standpoint i thought he ran a better race than the winner. From the post, having to rush to the rail, all while taking back to dead last to avoid being put in the parking lot.
I thought Always Dreaming had a very "easy" stalk and pounce trip but i wasn't overjoyed with him by any means. I actually think he's in a prime spot to run up the track come derby day
