Mark,
You are right. It is an 0-1-4 which is even worse. Three straight efforts, with a very weak trend. You can probably pencil in the X for the next race given the increased distance, increased pace pressure and the current condition line. I just don't see him running a good race but maybe he will fool me; however, of the real fast horses going into the Derby(those that have already run close to a "0"), he looks like the weakest of the bunch to me.
Just one other note and then I will leave Came Home alone. Remember I do think he is a good horse just not a Derby winner. I don't pay a lot of attention to the final Derby works but the last thing I would want to see from Came Home is to have him firing bullets in his works and on the muscle in his gallops. To have any chance at all, he has to relax early in the race.
