He's a good horse and to me appeared to run a straight path home. The Travers however tends to be additional evidence that he's developing a very eager attitude. Ideally, Kip Deville runs and Ministers Bid matures to test the good horse hypothesis. Neither one happened and the lack of an early challenger made the race an easy pass.
It looked good, but dont' think he beat much again. The division was never stellar and it got very weak with Barbaro, Sweetsaint, Bro Derek and Sinister Minister all passing the late year events. Also don't think Bluegrass Cat ran a very big number
He's in a good spot for the time being, but then so was Lost in the Fog. The real tests are around the corner and there will be no easy lead should he continue to run aggressively.
Hopefully he'll square off in open class at odds on.
Regarding the number and only roughly factoring path, certainly Ministers Bid did not equal his zero.
Dr. Pleasure pinched at the break 5
He's an old Salt steadied and wide 4 or less
Bluegrass Cat coming off short rest and being forced to press 2
Bernardini about a Negative 1 it looked good but there wasnt anything to challenge him. He leads the division clearly.
