I understand your point about the race being only 8F, but he has won at that distance and been in solid contention by mid stretch in some of his other races at 8.5 and 9F. Plus he got up last time at 8F in an absolutely paceless race.
If anything, he didn't look that great at 12F.
This horse will always have a question mark over him because of his soundness issues. But I've thought (and I believe I expressed it here) that this horse looked like a freakish talent after his first race in 05. I am thrilled to see him back vindicating that view. The right price at Woodbine is debateable, but IMHO he was clearly the most likely winner. That's all the ROTW suggested about him too.
