TGJB,
No, of course not.
he could be coming into form at the right time.
But i am bothered by the horse's two good runs coming at Aqu. Would like to have seen another good race somewhere else.
Horses with "one good three year old race" are very tough to gauge (for me, but also for anybody). Because 3 year olds can "get good" suddenly, but they could also be aberrational races. Wicked Strong is sort of an example of that. Danza is a much better example of that. His run in the Arkansas Derby was wicked good, can't argue that. Aberration? or first chance to route and this will be his new "norm".
Tough calls.
But as I said, if Wicked strong is a clear 2nd choice, that makes that call easier for me.
