He seemed like he hit his ceiling at the 1/8 pole. I don't see him doing anything passed a mile. He should target the Woody Stephens and King's Bishop, but I suppose it's likely he'll try the Santa Anita Derby anyways.
Carla Gaines doesn't seem to ship out of town too often, so maybe he'll probably end up in the light 3yo stakes at Hollywood Park. Progressing from 7f (Barrera) to 8.5f (Affirmed) to 9f (Swaps) against 4 or 5 opponents could be to his advantage. Then he can try turf at Del Mar.
