David Junior was the best value of the day given his Timeform and TG figures.
I agree that we will see more of him in the future. It was good to see Jamie Spencer finally mature compared to his terrible rides on Powerscourt last year.
He made some very intelligent comments in the pre-race interview as well. Looks like when Coolmore fired him, it was a timely wake-up call. He definitely suits this horse well.
For what it's worth, my view on the US horses running well without Lasix is that it just shows that it is overused here whether the horses need it or not. There is some good experimental evidence that it's performance enhancing effects may have more to do with it's ability to mask other drugs than to control bleeding.
