I THINK, he sold this one prior to Thursdays race. I did watch the race replay and in my mind, the horse didn't like the surface. Totally blew the final turn and had no chance. Bet down as I thought, but I didn't have a chance to get any $$ down. If the horse was sold , its most likely isn't as good as advertised. John only wants the best of the best and has the bankroll to get them.
