#1 Cali Cat ran 3 solid sprint races TY, and if he didn't back up in his last I would like him. Looks like the minors are his ceiling
#2 Incanto decent sprints but another that backed up going longer
#3 Iron Man Cal is an obvious contender. Nice line never going back, paired his 2YO top in his first race TY. The last race the best turf route fig and an obvious contender as the ML Fav
#4 Lyle The Crocodile making his 2nd US race with a decent enough pattern, hasn't gone backwards. He's needs to make a forward move to contend but that isn't impossible. Has shown speed and may be pace compromised by a few in here.
#5 Artislas has some solid numbers, a few excuses for the 2 backwards moves. Hernandez rides very well for Mullins, this one is competitve on numbers. I wouldn't sleep on this one.
#6 Kale's Angel has run fast sprints, routes nothing special. He's a threat on his very fast sprints but this isn't a sprint.
#7 Game Warrior has a nice pattern, he's just a couple points slower than the faster ones. A forward move is certainly possible and if he is anywhere near his ML he's useable. Blinkers go back on today. I think his ceiling is the minors.
#8 Day And Age this horse appears to like 2 turns better than 1, has run nice figures, solid pattern. Another slower than the best in here but can move forward and compete.
#9 Mala seems outgunned
#10 Bodi Zafa has a solid pattern, marching down to the co best turf figure in the race in his last. He'll have to work out a trip from the 10 hole going a mile. He is the clear value in this race at his 15-1 ML which I will be shocked if he is anywhere close to that
I have 2 horses that have run the same number going long on the turf. One is 9/5 ML and the other 15/1 ML. IMC has a beautiful pattern, but Bodi just ran a race just as fast
#10 Bodi Zafa will hopefully be "Reeling In the horses" down the stretch as the speed horses do the "Dirty Work". "Only A Fool Would Say That" he doesn't have any chance in here. Hopefully it will be a "Black Friday" for the others and runs a "Time Out of - his - Mind"
#10 Bodi Zafa to win
minors include 1,3,4,5,7,8
