Yeah, but on the other hand if you know he can go 1:08 and change for 3/4 and still finish then they are all running for second anyway, right? I think his last race was an aboration and I really don't see him turning in that type of freakish effort again..i really don't....And I really believe that there are a few jockeys that will attck him early if they have a horse with any tactical speed that they are riding.....they have to and will IMO....
