No way the first post picked is gonna be the ten-hole. I think Minister Eric'll break anywhere from the 5 to the 7.
And I honestly do not think very highly of Master David in this race. In the Wood, he looked like a winner at the top of the lane, but just couldn't hold off Tapit, and barely hung on for second. He might rate just off the hot early pace, and might be there around the far turn, but I expect horses like Tapit, Imperialism, and The Cliff's Edge to circle him, as well as the tiring frontrunners, going into the stretch.
