Essentially it boils down to this: "A 1 ain't what it used to be." Certainly not amongst colts. High Limit is a second cut horse, no doubt about it. However, he did win the Louisana Derby and I do think Vicarage came back with a win in a lesser race recently. He finished second to Bandini in a good effort and he handled Sun King easily that race. The Derby was a complete toss for obvious reasons. In the Preakness he ran hard on a pace I suspect was hotter than many others do and he was just nosed for fourth by a clunk up Sun King. That race yesterday was an aberration. He's the better horse, he's just not a phenom and needs some things to go his way. I think he was off form. He'll be back with lesser quality.
