Highly Motivated has a ton of works, I'd imagine he's got an allowance or something like the Westchester on tap. Not sure if the plan is stretch out Fulsome and Cezanne (and who knows who is now training the latter).

Jackie's Warrior is also ready, but can't imagine he'll go for the Met over the True North. I hope he doesn't make his comeback in the Churchill; 7 furlongs going to be tough to negotiate off the bench and surgery. Fearless might be ok cutting back to one turn.

Now that I think about it, Olympiad can win it if Mott is willing to put two in there.

Jackie's Warrior is running Saturday at Oaklawn in the Count Fleet and Motivated is running at Keeneland.
