Nick,

One of my favorite angles is 'eased' or 'vanned off'... Vanning is so frequently done as a precaution, and easings or pull-ups by anxious riders who think they 'heard something'... If the horse breezes back and has shown ability against the company they're in, I regularly pull the trigger and it's been profitable.

The horse in question has undeniable speed, and if sound, can pop this group on a track that is obviously kind up front. Totally precautionary posture in a tough race to figure out...
