His Saratoga form is pretty good and his biggest achievement so far is just staying healthy and getting a little better all the time. Like Lookin at Sucky last year -- he was also an expensive 2yo sales buy -- who was a pretty ok 2yo and just kept healthy. 2nd and 3rd in the Travers had to suck-up from that hot pace.

How did Coil not pass Shackleford in the stretch?
I looked to my brother entering the turn and said DFL to te horse he bet, Shack.

Yeah -- Coil was being eased.
Total non-effort from him ... something was obviously amiss.

Baffert already expressing his displeasure of Coil being that far back, but Coil never looked like he wanted to run at any point in the race.

He didn't exactly do a ton of running at Monmouth when he won the Haskell with a 96 Beyer.

I don't quite understand blowing him out in 46 four days before a mile and 1/4 race and then plan on rating well off the pace in a race that looked like the pace would be moderate at best. Coil probably didnt understand either and just said **ck this!
