In the bigger 8.5f and 9f races this spring, I think Maximus Ruler is more likely to be a factor than Ron.

Couldn't agree more, I thought Maximus Ruler ran a terrific race and am still not sure what exactly he was doing on the lead. I think he'll probably learn a lot from yesterdy and seems to be gradually improving.
