Beholder in the sprint.

Perhaps better left for a separate thread but I think a better question is the inverse - most vulnerable favorite.

Why do you feel Royal Delta is so vulnerable? I think her or Questing is very likely in the Distaff. I would not say Delta is most likely only because of the depth of that field. Most likely winner for the weekend has to be Groupie Doll or Emcee.

Being lazy and not looking it up and going by memory, but I think the juvy filly favorite has won like 8 of the last 9 years.

And this may not be the proper thread, but with the Groupie Doll talk - what do people think of Contested. I see her almost as likely to win as Groupie Doll.

I think its Shackleford in the Dirt Mile. Yeah he lost last out, but I think he'll take to SA pretty well and win.

I'm in the boat with the consensus. Groupie Doll for me.

Question marks abound and he may not be the same but Fame And Glory towers in class over the Marathon field. Hard for me to resist......
