Ghostzappers one race where he met serious competition (other than the woodward) was the B.C. Classic. That race completely fell apart and I've discounted EVERYONES numbers from that day. Though LoneStar is a joke, Roses in May ran a race thereafter that lent some credence to the classic.
I think Ghostsprinter is going down today for a number of reasons. At 2-5 its wise to stake out a position against him. This is probably the weakest edition of the Met Mile though since Exciting Story won, so thats in GZ's favor. He's been a pretty well managed horse and has been in the right spot. Today he catches a weak field and spots little weight. If he's great he wins this by six easily.
