I think that's a very large slice of the reason why ITMQ & Jnr. have been such a formidable combination. Regardless of how things might line up at the draw and then turn out in a race, the horse has the tactical high speed to enable him to win from just about anywhere and Jnr. has the gut instincts to pull the trigger at just the right time.
