Small Field YES

But not a bad one at all!!! Any of these horse could win if Bernardini does not fire

Could be a nice betting race- No 20/1 but some decent prices especially if the public gets happy on Sunriver and Bernardini

I think it is a great field. It is restricted to 3 year olds so you are naturally going to have a small field. Coupled with the Haskell so close and then horses in Cali are going to stay in Cali you dont have much to choose from. But this is a great field. I say Bernardini gets beat in this race.

Yeah, it really isn't weak, just small. I think the Diana is probably the better race. This race has the potential to be another blowout. Let's just hope we don't get another Noble Causeway type scratch at the gate.

The Travers should be an incredible race if a horse like Ministers Bid steps it up here. If not, we could have a 5 horse Travers.

I'm glad you clarified that about this race being weak.
It's a small field, but so what?
Now watch this...longshot Hemingsways Key comes home for big bucks.
Minister's Bid finishes four lengths back for place.
Bernardini is another two behind for show...and the bridge jumpers are spared their anguish.

agreed! HUGE difference between small and weak.
