I predict if he runs in the Met Mile he will be much closer to last than first.

And, finally, I stand by my original opinion......the general reaction to his win was in fact ennui.
Group 1 winner (albeit local G1s) at 2,3,4 and 5.. no mean acheivement.. i mentioned him last year as a horse to look out for.. He doesnt seem to run well two races in a row so he wouldnt seem a good bet whatever the race next time out..
