Tough race to handicap... my three win contenders
Seeking The Soul good form off the layoff and good works. Of the "closers" in the race looks to be the most able to sit closer to the pace should it fall apart up front.
Leofric Brad Cox trained, looks to be a horse that runs well near the pace whether it be slightly fast or slow and usually finishes well. Speed from Candy Ride and his dam side says the added distance won't be an issue. My pick to win.
Rally Cry that last race...yeesh. But the price will be right. Expecting Pletcher to have this one ready to run at a big price. This horse beat Diversify last April, maybe he can run back to that race again.
Second tier
Yoshida have to respect this horse enough for 2nd place contention. Will he take to the dirt and be able to carve out a good trip in a 14 horse field?
Gunnevera another horse you have to respect. Will close well in a race I don't believe will set up for a deep closer.
3rd tier
Term of Art the other Cox horse. Class test here, should be forwardly placed and looks to have the ability to fight and hold on for a piece in the stretch.
Discreet Lover is a horse that seems like he will run a competitive race but will be shuffled a little too far back to make an impact on the winner.
