I'm so torn about him, because I honestly think he's just too slow to be a factor in the Derby. On the other hand, the Derby is such a mind**** of a horse race and things happen that don't make sense. In that sense, his style and his unwillingness to quit makes him attractive to me. He doesn't mess around like some horses, seems to really have a total of zero race-affecting bad habits, etc. He's the kind of horse I love in a race like the Derby, I just wish he was the slightest bit faster on paper.
