That’s the kind of race we could see in the Classic. I can’t see Life Is Good doing anything but going out fast and even if Flightline sits early, he tends to pull. IMO, they are likely to hook up a bit prematurely even if not right from the start. I think that matchup is a lot more interesting than the consensus right now. We’ll see how LIG looks today, but I’m fairly certain Flightline had some help from the track getting 10F so easily and putting up that big number last time.

Didn't need Nostradamous to see that coming.

There’s very very little chance LIG is beating Flightline off todays effort.

based on that performance, i don't think he will beat Taiba or Epicentre. Better for him to go to the dirt mile.

LIG had a severely compromised trip.
Irad had to hold up for 2 furlongs, looking for someone to come inside so he he could cut them off. When none did, he was forced to run straight.

LMAO.
But seriously, who is gonna give Flightline a challenge in the Classic if it isn't LIG?
Not a single other horse in the field will have any early foot.

Has that feeling. Everybody knows they run their horse into the ground trying to pressure Flight.

Mott should run Speaker's Corner (2nd in the important 9f Discovery last year) with Olympiad & I'm pretty sure Baffert is auditioning potential rabbits for Country Grammer in the Awesome Again.

Speaker's Corner needs a LONG rest. He can't run at all anymore.

i dont know what some crazy rabbit would do to flightline.
best scenario is a rail draw with a bad break and make him have to do an arrogate dubai world cup to win.
