Analysis: He ran good enough off the layoff to get a mention in the Top 20 this week. He was able to win a photo for second in the Southwest over Mr. Z (imagine that) and will take a shot at American Pharoah this week. I don’t think he can be competitive against the likes of him, but a second place effort could send him to the Kentucky Derby.
