Nice size field . Wish there were more races at this distance. Hoping things have changed for Setsuko as a gelding . I'll be rooting for him to redeem himself , but it looks very competitive .

they are giving away money in this race. gladding is going to win this race. 3/4ths of this field has no chance, prayer for relief wants no part of the distance, pedroza is going to blow it somehow.

Is every workout in California listed as "handily" ? I see no "breezing" works, no matter how slow. Whats up with that ?

I hope you're right about Gladding.
I keep looking at the pps and even though I was wondering if I needed my head examined, I think he looks good here.

Nope. They'd much rather run for $10 million in a couple weeks.

He often shows a bit of seconditis but I like Setsuko in here. Ran 2nd in the race last year to Game On Dude.

Good luck to GoD with Cirrus des Aigles, Smart Falcon and Planteur in the field.

He should have opted to stay home.
