My biggest concern is just that Mandella trains the horse, and triple crown races are not his m.o. Similar to Mott, i consider Mandella a hay and oats trainer, far from the modern super trainers; these old school guys tend to have horses bounce more, esp. Mott. Maybe the horse is a freak and he can pull it off. Smith choosing him certainly makes a huge difference and should not be taken lightly. Saying that he likes slop is a negative is absurd' that just means the horse is very talented and efficient moving; it means he's a better horse, not somehow lacking. Smith would be the biggest vote of confidence though.
