Never mind … think we already know the answer…

You're right, Ghostzapper is totally going to beat out Quality Road for HOY now.
I'm as big of a GZ fan as anyone, but since you didn't see the race, QR was absolutely terrific today. He battled through a contentious pace, completely broke the heart of Warrior's Reward around the turn and still had more than enough to hold off the perfect-trip Musket Man in 1:33.11. Face it, your girl's actually going to have to come run in some real races if Shirreffs wants HOY over this monster.
With all of that said, I don't think QR wants to run a step further than nine furlongs, so if he makes it to the BCC as the favorite, I'll be betting against him.
