If you dont mind I will put my two cents in,
The real question, as was previously mentioned is how much faith do you put into the Haskell. Lion Heart told us nothing as we know. I did not think it looked very good visually and when I made my figure I thought others had the race rated two highly. With that in mind I will stand against Pies and Snookie.
Cant play Song off the layoff, and hate rushed three year olds off layoffs like this.
Love of Money could be any kind, but think the big fig was due to the slop, but who knows for sure.
Swingforthefences has not moved forward since February, why would he start now.
Royal Assault looks very interesting. Zito has pushed all the right buttons, he shows nice progression, just what you would expect out of a Kris S colt, he adds the shades, should be midpack. Snookie did beat him by 4 two back, which is a concern. All in all I think a new top is coming.
Master David probably runs back to his top, frankel horses off layoffs usually do, but would that even be good enough? will be played as well on the tote is my guess, Also gets weight from most here.
Pollards is consitent and fast, pletcher, john v, good outside post for blind horse. major player, have to think he is right in the thick of it with a furlong to go.
Niigon is too slow and will loose ground.
Seperato and Wimpl are in too deep.
Tapit is a joke. his wood was pathetic, I even thought it was rated higher by most then what figure I gave it. I have played against every wood horse this year and I am not stopping now. toss as the chalk.
going to bet Royal Assualt to win over Master David and Pollards Vision.
