Vicar's in Trouble the beneficiary of draw this time around as he can set up shop behind the three speeds.

Feels like this is going to be honestly run and In Trouble will have to prove at least a little special to withstand early running and have something for several stages of challenger later.

Intense Holiday looks VERY good. He closed off a slow pace last time, had a wide post in the Holy Bull. The setup will be a dream...unless the other jockeys box him the entire way somehow.

that and he was actually boxed in from making his run. An earlier closing run and I think he would've romped in the Risen Star

Thanks for your opinion, I do agree the three speeds hook up early, I am not convinced In Trouble will be around at the end, I think he came here to avoid Social Inclusion in The Wood.

Anyone have Sadler's stats shipping horses outside of California the last few years. Seems like they always run poorly.

Last horse I remember him winning with was Line of Davis in the AK Derby, but assume there may have been one or two others since then.

In the last 5 years, he is 6-75 with a $1.13 ROI outside of CA. In NY, he is 0-8.

Overall, he's on a 17 race losing streak outside of CA. His last win came in the Arizona Oaks in February 2012.
