Name an older horse in training that you though was legit that would finish this race as crappy as Keen Ice.
He is a G3 horse at best. Not sure why people keep making excuses for him. Heck, he may not even be a G3 horse.

Given we just saw Effinex get nailed by Hoppertunity a horse who could not beat G2 and G3's in SoCal its kind of hard to crap on Keen Ice.
I'm far from a fan but if you look at how bad the older horse division is outside of Crome, Frosted and Dortmund I'm not sure how you make a strong case against him.
Basically the 8th best older horse in America is probably a 62k claimed in New York.
