I considered doing ROTW for both those races, but passed exactly because of the Centeno/outside post thing.
One of the worst bets in racing is horses who run huge first time out or off a layoff, the next time. Only thing worse is when they come back on relatively short rest, or going sprint to route.
As I have pointed out at the Saratoga seminars, the public pays way too much attention to a horse's last race, they start with the assumption that's him, that's how he will run today. There's a reason we put the figures on graphs.
