Joe,
IMO, his Travers was not good enough to beat several of these and I think it's a mistake to try to win the BC Classic off this kind of freshening. If anything, PP is also somewhat vulnerable because of that. However, at least he's trained by a great trainer and is working up a storm.
Zito will wind up in the hall of fame, but I wouldn't give him a 25K claimer.
Like I said though, poorly prepared inferior Zito horses have a better chance of running well than perfectly prepared superior Zito horses.
Birdstone will not get a nickel of my money at less than 25-1 and I don't even like anyone in this field.
