Notes |
#5 Royal Majesty |
Think there is enough pace signed on to hope the splits are at least honest, and he's a reliable enough finisher who finds an easier spot than he saw last out. The runner up that day just missed in the Transylvania here last week. |
#6 Gorilla Trek |
He might have enough to grab a piece of this at a price, as he's bringing dull form over the dirt and synthetic with him, but he graduated on the grass at first asking and tried Grade II turf company off that run. Could see him bouncing back. |
#9 Moonlight |
He was never involved behind one of the likely Kentucky Derby favorites at Fair Grounds last out, but believers can keep hope as he'll get over to the turf while getting some class relief off the trio of graded stakes tries. |
Race Summary |
There are probably three or four other players who could land this that I haven't even mentioned -- fun race. Final thought: #3 Incinerator is interesting on the move to the turf, but I worry about some other pace making his life hard today as he adds blinkers. |
