nice analysis TG...
sun king - simply put, this guy is distance challenged. unless he faces weak field, he invariably flattens out in the stretch. the cutback to 8.5f can only help. looks like zito has him cranked. looking for a return to the "0" lvl.
high limit - perfect trip "1" in the la derby. faces a bit more pressure here, but i'm guessing another "1" is coming.
sort it out - no #'s fast enough
scrappy t - nice horse. ran two nice races in the "2" range this spring, finishing well in both, then ran his best while running second in the preakness. i think this is a legit "0" horse, and i expect a run in that range.
golden man - mystery to me. ran very well at GP, then flattened out like a pancake in the peter pan. TG says he bounced, but why? they spotted him perfectly for the peter pan, cranking him up after seven weeks rest. since he gets in light, and gets my favorite jock, i'm going to take a positive view.
letterman's humor - "5" i guess? ground will turn it into a "7" at best.

scrappy's scratched.

not sure how i will play this one, but from post 1 with bejarano up, i am leaning towards SK. GM also looks interesting.
