Race is lacking a winner.
Could be a 'default winner' with some potential for a price.
Of the prices, most interesting is the
FI FI'S WILD HEART.
This is a big, goofy, energetic guy. Mullins is a class act, and although it's disconcerting that this horse has taken some time to get to the races, he could well be primed for a strong debut.
Not as fun, nor as big a price, the
MOMMA'S BABY BOY is in good form and can win a 'default' style race by simply moving into contention down the backstretch and out-driving the other duds. Value here is dependent on the uncoupled Shirreffs entry is underlaid. If
MOMMA'S BABY BOY is favored, this becomes a tough race to play.
HOLLYWOOD STRIKE has the paper form that will match some strong angles, but he seems to be a quitter. Maragh is a bit of a wildcard, but it's not like Rajiv is some feared wire-to-wire jock. He may simply be ensuring a pace for the Zenyatta baby.
ZICONIC is not completely impossible, but figures to be a sizable underlay.
