Seahenge is mildly interesting
Looked him up, he may not be as terrible as his form suggests.
He'll love the stretch-out in distance and the slower pace.
Always have to add a couple furlongs to the euro form to figure out ideal distance here. No one is really a '12F' horse, but he fits in very well, and has the value of players here misreading his distance preference.
He's been kind of a buddy for Mendelssohn, chasing that more brilliant stablemate as an uncoupled entry. He's not quick from the gate, and he's usually lagging behind and running on at the end. In the UAE Derby, he hopped at the break and was in last, while Mendelssohn had that amazing run up front. He didn't run badly.
In the Pat Day Mile the pace was very fast, and he went fast enough there to show that he has the potential to be 'in touch' with a Belmont Stakes pace.
Good fundamentals. Changes leads. Nice looking animal.
I can't eliminate him from having a shot to run 3rd or 4th.
