Didnt you want to try and have civil educated racing talks? Im doing my part. Staying out of selections, etc..... I'm not complaining I'm saying i believe at post time there is no way Defiant Honor is even half her ML. Shes a 7-2 shot.

A lot of people like this horse so odds will come down. But looking at this field the 10-1 is a fair opening line. There are A ton stakes winners in the race that deserve to be lower odds. Sweeping Paddy is my choice in a fun event

She's a player, but she totally tripped out last time.

Sweeping Paddy's last was spectacular. I'm just concerned about her running well outside of KY.

Everyone can have Defiant Honor. I like Party Boat.

I also think this horse might be getting a little too much credit versus these established graded winners, and the fact that there looks to be pace in this race so i would be shocked to see her alone on an easy lead. I'm often wrong, but i feel like this race is pretty logical, 11-1.

Dream Dancing gets away from division stalwarts La Coronel and New Money Honey finally. She owns a win from the outside post on this course (her maiden win) last year. She's had a bit of trouble/disadvantage her last 3: wide and left too much to do at Keeneland; hard held when lacking room on the far turn at Churchill; and having to challenge early in the slow pace dictated by New Money Honey in the Wonder Again.

Won't have to come out of her comfort zone again with stablemate Victory To Victory--who has a world of speed--in there to ensure a contentious pace.
