The Lexington Stakes

Only a 20 point race.

I'll give it away for free: Pony Up!

I need more evidence Pony Up can run at a high level on dirt.

My Boy Jack should be a solid favorite, and has ran well as a 3YO. However, I'm not sure he gets the pace meltdown in here that he needs.

Honor Up was within 2 lengths of Audible two back. Audible would be 3/5 or less in this field. Hard time seeing that we get 12/1.

Greyvitos has beat some good horses while he also makes his 3YO debut. 6/1 likely is close to what he'll go off at, and is a must include on horizontals for me. Can easily see dutching the .

Greyvitos probably makes the derby field if he wins the Lexington assuming his connections want to run.

The only hope My Boy Jack has to do any damage in the derby is if the track comes up sloppy

looking for a likely winner you wind up with happy jack. horses always fires.

but i don't like closers, and i hate closers that are favorite.

this race may not even have a fast pace to run at either. complicating matters is that there are plenty of horses in here have excuses not to win though.

greyvito shouldn't have to be fully fit to hit the board.

the 2 horse might steal this race. and i would say the same about the 1 but i think the horse is too cheap.

I think the will improve in his second route race, and he gets a positive jock change ( potentially good - IF he decides to send today).

I can see Kent getting lost out there and giving up late.
Track not favoring deep closers.

Missed it by that much!
I should have put %$2 to show on Kent - he would have come in 4th for sure!
