Yeah, it is doubtful he'll ever be in another paceless race but I hope if he does wind up in another one that they don't drop him deep and instead keep him right around the 24.5 clip that he is most effective at whether that means being 20 lengths back or 5. He should have a shot in the Gulfstream Park Handicap with the majority of good horses being in Dubai or California and a distance that should be to his liking. After that things are going to get a lot tougher.
