He will scratch, return with a win in the Jim Dandyl, finish last in the Travers, then retire.

If he's not right at entry time, don't enter. Not that I'm a big Sway Away fan (or that I generally think that horse #21 on the earning list "deserves" to be in the gate) but how obnoxious for the owners of the horse that's one back on the list?

I get it now. He's going to make him the favorite on at least pic 3 and pic 4 tickets by scratching.

As if it wasn't already a circus. I'm a huge fan of what he did last year, but you just can't bet this horse now, right?

When the Sway Away folks start complaining about not drawing in, tell them to get their horse better fit to improve on 6th in the Rebel and 4th in the Arkansas Derby.

They won't complain about not drawing in, not in the least, but this horse had a monumental excuse in the Rebel and an amazing 6wide,8wide trip in the Arkansas Derby, still staying on for fourth despite one of the worst PVal rides in a big race.
