How can you say that weight will be the issue. He finished 2nd to Barbaro in a race at the same distance. If it wasnt for a great performance he wins The Derby. Then he comes in 2nd in a 1 1/2 mile race to a horse that was made to go that distance. The weight and distance will not be a factor for him, the race that will unfold is going to be the problem.
