Good question.
hasn't cemented his style as a deep closer in my imagination.
4/4 poor breaks that were his fault. 2/4 was able to rush up in touch with pace.
4/4 quick 1st call pace figs. '113' was the lowest so far.
do not have to go back far to find a comparison horse/break/scenario-demands, and even talent (at least for this race from Rombauer comparitive to Mage's start) in
Rombauer here in 2021 Preakness
watch the
entire trip before you rule him out on style alone
I'm not a fan of Castellano, but he earned the mount after his excellent Derby ride.
Two Phil's is also very good. I'm not into toss mode for Mage, but If both run and are healthy could make for a nice matchup
