I loved Burnham Square in his last start at Gulfstream, and thought the short stretch, the 16th pole finish line was a big disadvantage for him, and probably confirmed by his gallop out after the race. He was 4-5 lengths in front at the traditional finish line.

Liked him in the Bluegrass, but ended up just singling East Ave.

Seems wide open 3 weeks out. Will East Ave be used as a pace setter for Godolphin? If he gets an easy lead, he might hold on. If they go to fast, it sets it up for Sovereignty, who looked really good winning the Street Sense over the CD strip as a 2 year old. And visually , his move around the turn that day was impressive, the kind of trip that wins a derby.
