I'm thinking Awesome Slew will rate and has done so in the past. O'Neill has said Nyquist will be coming from the pace and Hit It Once More, coming out of restricted company, isn't fast enough to get out and clear from the far outside; he'll get caught wide and be forced to come off the pace. Cupid absolutely needs the lead and if he breaks will be hell bent on securing it. And I'm not sure others want to run with him. Awesome Slew could assume the early lead of Cupid doesn't get out.

If the 5 of 6 speeds run free, so be it. I just can't see it. Especially with Nyquist in the field.
