![]() Very interested in two of the 'lesser lights' in these races...
In the Matron, KMc's ARMONK had an impossible debut and could be a 'jump up' candidate here... In the Futurity, do not discount Nick Zito's PAINT, from at least exotics consideration, based on the Beyer.. He was stunning in a 5.5f debut that he should not have won. Will only be better stretching out. Pinhooked by the Fastok family for $100,000 as a yearling and sold for $400,000 as a 2yo in training.. Could be a really nice horse..

My instincts are saying toss the Posse horse, but he was game at 6.5... This race probably sets up for The Leopard. He didn't knock my socks off in his debut although he got rave reviews. In his last he lagged a little and had a duel set up for him in front, but was game and much the best. Pletcher will want this guy to finish well. |

![]() The Leopard would be far more inpressive if Immortal Eyes could win. After seeing IE stop like he was tied to the 1/16 pole last time, I'm starting to question The Leopard's "determined close."
Tale of Ekati ran well behind Ready's Image and bucked his shins that day, his training indicates that he's back. I liked Mythical Pegasus' game maiden win. As for Kowboy, well he looks like a sprinter but 7f is still a sprint. He's shown ability to pass horses and even though he's by Posse, his damsire is Coronado's Quest who won a pair of G1 routes, including the 10f Travers.
