I am sure I am missing a couple of horses but this will be one excellent field.

It would be an excellent field if all those horses showed up. But attrition will rear its ugly head, and we will be left with at most 5 of them, and probably not the most exciting 5. I would not be surprised to see 4 or fewer make it to the BCC.

Am I too pessimistic? Heck, I still haven't recovered from the cancellation of the Arlington Park race that was going to feature Easy Goer vs Sunday Silence vs Criminal Type.
