With 2 Baffert/Zayat horses you would think one would be the rabbit. Looks to me PFR will be on a suicide mission.

Might be the other way around. Jaycito had speed in a couple of starts as a juvenile. He's fresh and has a sharp 1/2 mile work leading into this. He's also been a disappointment, been training with the second string, and is coming off throat surgery. Seems expendable, especially in this situation (entering a Grade 2 route off a 6 month break).

I agree with Jaycito probably being the rabbit, but I like Balladry to catch them.

Tapizar must be pretty overrated to be 6-5ML in that spot. What about the turf speed pushing him early? I dont like his chances today. Ill stick with the 2 Bafferts, its nice having the goat 2x and neither is chalk.

I mean, really? How stupid do these jocks have to be? How many times do they have to give Ultimate Eagle a loose lead before they realize he doesn't quit?

He won that race as soon as Nakatani tried to rate on the backstretch after not getting the lead.
