Default So who will be the first to race....R2R, Discreet Cat, or The Green Monkey??

Personally I believe The Green Monkey will be the first one, as he needs at least one race before he goes off to stud

I'll take the Cat. Allowance race at Belmont, then the Cigar Mile.

You have to say it will be Discreet Cat, although you couldn't be sure. Whatever happens, i don't think DC will be able to show anywhere near the sort of ability he showed last year. I think he will be a major disappointment when he gets back on track. Just a feeling.

The Green Monkey is obviously pretty moderate. Which is more embarassing, spending $16million on a horse that never races, or spending $16 million on a horse that does race and has next to no ability? I'd say the later. At least there are thousands of excuses if he never makes it to the track.
