I can't make sense of why Castellano gets off P2D for SaD. (And anyone who like P2D needs to think a bit longer with Prado up, the way he's riding.) There's absolutely NO WAY SaD gets 1 1/4M against these horses. It's not that he isn't game, which he very much is, but he ALWAYS gets a bad trip because of his running style, which always has him in the mix the entire race. He got butchered last out, for example. There's always some suckup that runs a lot less and gets him late. And there are many late runners in this race.
