Do you guys really like Steppenwolfer? I am having a hard time seeing him even in the super....


and I am with you on BTN....I will let him beat me...even though I do think it sets up fairly well for him.

Steppenwolfer is a pure hunch at this point, as I said, competitive dirt figs, but only 1 turf race, his most recent. Could surprise, or run last.. the odds will determine if he is worth the risk.

Even his dirt figs seem a bit light to me. Never had a BSF over 98.

ran 5 consecutive TG 2's last year. Only 3 starts so far at 4, two 5's and a 6 (turf). I heard Steve say he was going to try and get Dan Peitz on the show, perhaps he can shed some light.

Default Steppenwolfer.....

Could be the Flashy Bull of Belmont day, and step up and run a big one.
