Steve, Question reguarding the 9th.
Fu San is most likely going to be a heavy favorite. Do you have any concerns reguarding the training break of about a month and now the fact that he's making a steep drop in career start 3?
Obviously I could see him winning, but I think I might be making a stand against.

Also in a race where there seems to be absolutely no speed, do you have any thoughts on Scorper?

EDIT: I see Gus used Fu San on top as well, so this question goes out to you as well.

Matt,

I think if you're playing this thing narrowly (the P6), he's the horse you have to live with good or bad. He's obviously an ouchy type to begin with given the PP's, so the 4 week break in training shouldn't be that big an issue considering he had to be pretty well fit before it and has had three straight spins the last three weeks. The class drop is a plus considering Caesar Kimmel can lose 10,000 horses like this and not care. Can he get beat? Yeah... Is he a horse you take big chances on leaving off? No. The problem is, if you don't believe in him, you are faced with a quagmire of mediocrity behind him as candidates... If you say it's an open race, then even a horse like High Prize who has turf siblings becomes a possibility.
