Looking at Dullahan's PP's and seeing the lack of mid 90 Beyer's that a horse like Hansen has, I think Dullahan will have to be 5:1 or more.

race looks like a possible set up for Dullahan but don't like the fact that he's 1-5 even throwing out his first two sprint races. His one winning race on this track won't win this race. I rather take a shot with Ever So Lucky at his price or Great Howe who seems to find a way to win.

But the way he finds to win has been on the rail and at the front of slowly paced turf races. In this race doesn't the exact opposite (caught wide & facing a fast pace) appear more likely?

I'm not expecting Great Howe to be in the front. Hoping someone or others will do the dirty work up front against Hansen. Grass horses can handle the synthetics.

I think Dullahan can beat Howe Great this time.
The trip horse is going to be Heavy Breathing, who should tuck in nice and cozy behind Hansen, Scatman and maybe Hero Of Order. He's quick enough to stay close and some improvement in his final figs could put him in the mix. He ran pretty well last time in his graded stakes debut (lifetime best fig) and another move forward is plausible. Gets a patient jock in Lanerie and the right move may get him to the front in the lane.

Prospective projects to get a nice trip too but Contreras will probably find himself 4 wide on the last turn somehow instead of staying inside. He should be able to get an inside trip; just follow Lanerie !

my early exacta is 1-6 w 1-3-4-6

Dullahan - Flattered by Coalport in that last race....I'm guessing 3-1 at post time. What do you think the odds will be in multi's? Seems like many outlets have Dullahan winning....so I'm thinking PK3/PK4 Odds will be even lower.

There are very few even mildly credible options in this race.

Therefore something crazy like Gung Ho will win it.

Yeah... he could definitely get a piece at big odds.

That was quite the ride Aruna and Zagora were given, rating at the back off :25 and :50 fractions.
