Ace,
Why wouldn't she have a chance? She is fast enough to win on anybody's speed figures, including her TG #'s. Even without the pull in weight (which she won't get from AP, she will give him 2 lbs).
If the race were in California I would make her the favorite. She hasn't shown she can ship and run as well, which she has to do. If you watched any of the second tier preps for the BC Classic this weekend in SAnta Anita and Kentucky, you certainly can't make ANY of those horses contenders. Top 3 choices will likely be AP, Honor Code and Beholder, likely in that order.
Sure as hell makes the race even more interesting than it already would be if the mare runs.
