Look at it this way if you throw a few bucks on him at least you know he’s going to give you a little excitement for the first part of the race lol

That just cant happen with this years field that features alot of horses with real tactical speed, many of them would go for the lead at the 3/8ths pole and I am guessing horses like Magnum Moon and Diversify, Mendelssohn will quicken much better than Promises Fulfilled.
A poor year to try and steal it. Slow pace would only help the better horses and make it impossible for horses like Good Magic.
Promises Fulfilled and Quip are two horses I think are really up against it.
