Maybe not many grade 1 horses lined up in this race last Saturday, but who cares. You can’t argue with a field of 14 and a trifecta of 20/1 over 16/1 over 10/1. Not that I hit it (my money was on Blenheim Palace who finished up the track), but if the second and third legs of this new turf triple crown are anything like the first, I’m in.
Compare to the Dwyer, a grade 3, 8f dirt race for 3YrOlds, ran earlier in the day. Had six entries and was won by Code Of Honor at 6/5. The trifecta included 6/5 over 8/1 over 5/2.
