Skipping the Gotham was really the original plan. Horse breezed so well first back after the race that it became a consideration but going right to the Wood was the plan all along.
Horse responded great to the 7 weeks between first and second starts and feeling is the same will do him well between Withers and the Wood and that would leave him very fresh for the big race if things go well.
He got a lot of racing education in his first two starts between the dog fight in the first race and the obvious education in the second race.
It's always a judgement call and can be argued both ways but I believe this is definitely the right move.
