The Belmont....if it wet.

Miraja, agree with the ones it will help. Don't know much about the ones it will hurt - have HK and Sunriver run poorly in slop before?

Yes. They both ran poorly in the Holy Bull on a sloppy track. Hemingway' Key ran a career worst 67 beyer that day and finished 11th.
The Holy Bull was the only race of Sunriver's career in which he finished out of the money, when he faded to seventh.

BanJo becomes the choice if it was wet, but I suspect we'd have to have weather like a couple of years when Empire Maker won before it was sloppy. It is interesting to think about Sunriver because he hated it last time and his style doesn't suit off going. I say it's interesting because he figures to be one of the favorites and would be a candidate to totally disregard. Deputy Glitters could be safely dismissed as well. His Wood was a disaster.

High Finance is your winner on any track surface. Not much in the race to beat.
