I don't think it will be a horse who couldn't last a route of ground in a mcl25000 at Hawthorne where he was on the lead at six furlongs in 116 4/5. Anything can happen in a race and who knows, he might get beat, but cosidering everything my thought is his off odds are even money or less. What's your prediction?

His PP's says off-track specialist. Will he back up his 100 beyer?
I'll predict a victory at .70 odds by 2 1/2 lengths over Mr. Bowling while earning a 96 beyer.
However, I'll be rooting for Mr. Bowling to run him down.
