I know this will flip a few people out and I am the last person to knock a trainer because I understand all the little things that go on beyond the publics eye but... I think that Albertrani ran a short horse. I have been trying to understand how a lightly raced three year old that wins as easily as he did in his prep could be fit enough to go a mile and a quarter in a big field against the best competition that he ever faced off off with works that barely broke 103 and in the final case 105? It just is hard for me to believe that he could be dead-ready fit with that kind of work schedule. He doesn't gallop at a high speed and his works are slow for a bad horse let alone an ultra talented one. That's not saying that he wasn't 95% but in a bigger field where he was forced to lose a little ground on a surface that wasn't especially fast, his not having a hard race or work for over a month and a half may have left him a little below where he should have been.
