Chuck,
For a change I agree,Barbaro had some things go his way. He's cat quick from the gate and settles without pulling which is why things went his way. Check the replay of his dirt starts and I think you will see an exceptional athlete.How much he is spent by the effort remains to be seen.
There may be one minor negative,when I saw him work in florida, in Feb, he did not carry too much flesh. Is that why Matz spaces him so long in between starts? If so, two weeks may not be enough recoup time off that effort. We'll see.
