I agree. I think the distance was a question for him in the Derby as well. I liked his Remsen and maiden win a lot, but he ran against easy fields and didn't really show much improvement in terms of ability from his two year old year to his three year old year. While he won the Wood, it was also an easy field and wasn't that impressive IMO. Also, the best horse in the race ran horrible. I like AGS much better because I think that he is much more talented, but AGS hasn't ran a good race and shown his true ability since the Tampa Bay Derby. Hopefully, Pletcher can get him straight and we'll see him back to his best.
