Code of Honor getting post #9 seems like a bad draw for him. He got a really nice inside trip last time with a perfect pace set up for him. Both the pace and his trip will probably be worse for him this time around. I’m tossing him.
Maximum Security is a complete wildcard. I agree with Steve Haskin (I think that’s who talked about him on the show) you almost can’t handicap the horse. The first 3 starts show very good sprint speed but the ability to run some more. The pedigree is interesting with AP Indy on the dam side...but the other horses on that side aren’t very impressive. And he’s faced almost no one. My biggest concern is if Mott wants to rate with Hidden Scroll and there’s no pressure on the pace, is it a possibility that Maximum Security gets the lead and just runs away with it?
