This is a much more classy field (on paper) than what's running at Gulfstream. The track should be dry after some potential Friday rain by Saturday afternoon. Asmussen, Baffert, and Pletcher have score their share of wins in this event. No Pletcher, no Baffert (but have the
and
transfers). Asmussen's entrants nothing to sneeze at.
None of these have me reaching for my wallet at the window.
ran a bang-up OC last out over this surface. A repeat of that would but him in the picture at a decent price.
Gets Prat who's been dangerous. Knocked off the Jeff Ruby winner last out. The
was beat by Forte last out. Maybe four lengths behind Forte is enough to win here. The
seems to have a similar look but his Rebel was underwhelming.
got sloppy seconds the last two and should get a more dry run this time. Looks like the type to benefit with extra distance. TGaff is becoming a premier pilot as well.
Leaning toward the
as my primary choice. Probably also include the
and
on top some plays. Probably include the Lukas
, the
, and
in a dime super play. Can make a case for the
to sneak on the bottom for a price boost should some speed melt.
