Default Awesome Act

Lost a front shoe at the start of The Wood when he stumbled. How much could this have affected his performance?

Makes a great difference... Would have lost by only 7 instead of 10 lengths.

damn, you stole my line..

Regarding where next for Awesome Act, Id love to see him take a bit of a rest and then go to California for some 9f G1 like the Goodwood. I reckon he'd be a class act on the synthetics!!

If they go to the Derby with him, I think he might end up being a solid include at the bottom of exotics.
