Maybe you're right, I mean Warrior's Reward has been absolutely scintillating in all of his route races.

Do you think it's a coincidence that the only time he has looked even moderately decent was around one turn with cupcake inside trips?

He lost to Successful Dan in a veritable match race as they controlled a cushy pace and he couldn't even get by him! In the Jim Dandy he really cruised on an easy lead (as DrugS pointed out) and had no answer for Kensei, who may be just a slightly decent horse.

There is absolutely nothing Warrior's Reward has done against stakes competition that would make me think he can win the Travers. Of the horses slated to run I'd say only Charitable Man and Our Edge are more unlikely winners.
