Is Scrappy T's Withers in the ballpark with the High Fly /High Limit tops?

I think there are a lot of vulnerable horses that will be taking money in the Preakness.

Scrappy T's previous top in the Whirlaway was a 2.75.In the Wood he ran a 5 but his saddle slipped at the 5/8ths pole and had to cost him some lengths.If you can forgive the Wood his sheet probably looks solid.

Bellamy doesn't have to bounce back in two weeks and either does Alex.Giacomo,Closing Argument and Wilko with a bleeders excuse will all get bet,and might all be slower than Scrappy T.Whatever else Zito sends will probably get bet-hopefully its High Fly and Bailey will suck up bad dollars.

Bailes isn't a drug trainer(I'm guessing)and if testing and surveillance is in place he's got a level playing field.

He's purposely brought the horse along slowly this year with an eye on peaking in the spring.The 102 beyer in the Withers will look good on paper,but he won't get bet because of the 18 length loss to Bellamy in the Wood.Seems like a very live animal here.
