*** As I write this the sky's are threatening but I don't believe any significant rain will fall in Toronto .
The turf course should be very firm - as we haven't had rain in awhile .
I think Todd kabel will exact some revenge today on his earlier mistake this year , picking Mobil over Wando in the Queen's Plate. To me Soaring Free is the real deal . His connections excel on the turf - the wide post shouldn't be a problem as he has the speed to sit off Chopinina and it's a long run to the turn .
Wando is an absolute , with both hands - BET AGAINST .

A few other observations :

6th race - I think Volga will be overbet - 5yo with an iffy line . If the course favors speed - Ginger Gold off her last could be tough .

8th Race - If Kabel can give Battlements a hustling ride early from the fence he could last for a big piece .
