Sole Power is much less proven at 6f and seems a 5f specialist. His run this past December aside, where even then someone had to run second to the Japanese freak, he hasn't done much at the distance to show he can win here.
The track is absolutely drenched and that can make this a crapshoot. I like Astaire here. He's done some of his best racing over the course and distance and is proven over a bog track. He went too hard up front last time and if he can ration out that speed he can be there start to finish at a good price.
