Swale

[magwell]

Whose going to beat Forty tales ?

[Ocala Mike]

Castellano?

Taking a hard look at the :13: , first-time dirt and may get the closing trip with Prado.

[Hajck Hillstrom]

:13: ARE YOU KIDDING ME

It rings true......

[magwell]

the 5 and 6 look to be the main threats imo

[duncan04]

I'm going with :6: Gombey Dancer. Thinking should be off pace and the stretch to 7F should be no problem

Whose going to beat Forty tales ?

Undrafted did more running than Forty Tales in the Hutcheson.

If I liked Undrafted I would be all over him. I just don't really like the way he finishes, as impressive as his last race was.

Didn't like Forty Tales effort that much last time at all. He didn't make any kind of run until deep stretch, feasting off the stubborn but tiring Undrafted/HonorableDillon . He didn't blow by Honorable Dillon in the gallop out (i'm not sure he even got past him). And I don't even like Honorable going forward all that much. Forty Tales still has enough quality, and he figures to fire. He probably has the best chance to win today.

I should be all over Gombey Dancer, but his race didn't look as electric as his bris numbers look on paper. These Fast-last horses have done well in these early 3yo stakes races, and I gave him a look but wasn't super impressed. He looks more like a candidate to stretch out eventually, and his best chances here may be wear-down some rivals late. If he isn't used up early he could be running with Forty Tales in the stretch.

Clearly Now probably gets some longshot money (doubt he goes 15-1). He was 3rd in the Holy Bull. But I doubt he gets sheets type money as he had a dream trip last time.

I do like Tulira Castle a lot(in general). He's fundamentally sound, but he's just not talented enough. He can sit a conservative trip, stay in touch and pick up pieces in a pace collapse - but he's less talented than Gombey Dancer or Forty Tales in that scenario.

Undrafted could take this bunch gate to wire.

Little Distorted won't be the favorite today, doesn't draw to the far outside & is now under the care of Marty Wolfson. Don't think he wanted any part of the sprint races he has run in thus far. The longer the better for him, just a matter if he is capable. One to watch in the post parade, the odds board, the race & perhaps on down the line.

[JustRalph]

This :6: is either sitting on a big one, or will wilt ........

Looks to have a chance to improve. If he does.....could have a future

[Ocala Mike]

Switching to the :12: with the scratch of the :13: . Will use the :6: and Pletcher with him.

[woodtoo]

:6::12::7: good betting race

[Tom]

I think the :8: has a good shot to get up for the exacta in here.
Same with :7:

I'll play :10: / :7: :8: :9: :1:

[Robert Fischer]

:6: looks tremendous in the paddock / parade.

Tempted to bet him.

I'm staying out of this one.

Great Call

One would have to think that with the win by Clearly Now that Itsmyluckyday's win in the Holy Bull has been somewhat validated.

[JustRalph]

Corey Lanerie is a fool. Going to have to watch that 6

Breaks with two longshots in a slow pace and decides to take back, loses touch and folds up.......

That looked like the strongest prep of the year before the Swale so the result surely did nothing to diminish that point of view.
