Tapwrit - more efficient energy distribution than Gormley or Irish War Cry(and most/all others) in the Kentucky Derby. If allowed to patiently run his race, he can capitalize on anyone who falters.
Gormley - Used a lot of horse in the Kentucky Derby racing wide with the pace, in an inefficient manner. Possibility exists that Espinoza rides much more conservatively, and is able to get a 3rd or 4th in the Belmont.
------------------
Epicharis - this is a good solid horse. Unlike Thunder Snow, his form will translate to the United States. Have to respect him in your group of contenders. The fact that he hung a bit late in Dubai, and he draws wide, along with his low price make him likely to be a poor value win or place.
