The Skinny
He was the "wise guy" horse in the Derby, but never did any meaningful running. Raced three wide on both turns, and had nothing left for the stretch drive. It's quite possible that he didn't care for that wet track, and the recent bullet workout at Churchill Downs shows that he might be able to revert to that 105 Beyer form. Late-charging son of El Prado should get plenty of pace to run at, but he seems best played on the bottom of exotic wagers.
