Tough to see Shakespeare getting beat by this soft bunch unless whatever created a 16 month layoff resurfaces after setting a track record over a rock hard surface. Only Bill Mott could have a trainer pattern where a runner has run three consecutive tops and have a 27% chance of running another one.
With a win Shakespeare would be a solid favorite on WTC Day and a solid horse to try and beat.
Aiden O'Brien sends out an interesting sort who opened with three consecutive wins and hasn't won since. O'Brien considered one of the sharpest trainers in Europe is 0-10 first time North America and 0-10 first time lasix. So what does he do this here.
Gives the horse FTL, gotta work eventually. Right?
