derby,
First, thanks for the response.
I like RFP better than Perfect Drift because I see PD bouncing. I could be wrong about that. If you go with the opinion that his race on a wet track two back is a throwout, then I think you have a better argument. I think RFP has an opportunity to move forward and see no reason to bounce him - couple that with what I think will be tremendous value and that is why I'll use him.
Saarland is not a bad horse - I think the Wood was a great field and I loved his dam BTW. I just see him making a bigger backward move. He had a short race, then a big move forward for a lifetime top last out. I see him regressing. Blue Burner will most likely bounce too, but I think has a better foundation under him and didn't make the big jump that Saarland did.
