These are young three year olds trying real ground for the first time on both tough and rushed preps. Asking a horse to run .46 and 1.10.3 at Pimlico and hang in there til the very end is a tall order. Pimlico Saturday sure as hell wasn't Aqueduct on April 9th.
Bobby Frankel said High Limit would have won if Going Wild didn't ruin his parade. Woudn't go that far, but he certainly cost him third.
Scrappy blew his rhythm in the last Preakness turn too. When yours truly stated Scrappy would beat Bellamania in a match race at 8.5 marks it was serious. Now, he'll beat him at whatever distance Bellamania's connections propose. The question is can he beat him in say the Haskell or Jim Dandy? Thats going to depend upon pace. Bellamania is a hostage to pace. Scrappy is not. You gotta love courageous Fit to Fights and Sunny's Halo was entirely underrated. This horse is a pure gamer. He's the best Fit to Fight yet.
