Joe Hirsch Turf
 

Only 14 nominations for this one. Anyone have a clue who is def gonna run? Other than EC of course...

Pletcher went ahead and got a rabbit for another stalker. It worked so well with Bandini and Flower Alley. All I know are English Channel, his new rabbit Icy Atlantic, and a couple of Euros in Frost Giant and Royal Highness. Anyone know much about the Euros?

Correct me if I am wrong...but EC has won a few races without a rabbit.

yeha, but he is guaranteeing speed now, smart by Pletcher

Yeah, which makes it more baffling why they would go get a rabbit. Seems it would benefit the Euros more than the stalking English Channel.

LOL the only thing that worked well with flower alley was the hype for this overrated animal, dont know why people fell into it especially after watching em all stagger down the lane @toga last year

back to the point.... possibilities include three Euros Freedonia, Frost Giant, Royal Highness... also Icy Atlantic and Interpretation...

nice workout for EC!!

I hope this isn't taboo to say, but what if Barbaro stayed on the turf? Would he be the favorite for a race like this? I bet he would. What an animal he is.

He would destroy this average field. I think the europeans will run 1,2,3,4 again this year. And some of them with be their group 2 winners.

English Channel should roll in here, unless one of the Europeans is something special. O'Brien's horse is a little interesting.

1. English Channel
2. Freedonia
3. Royal Highness

I am going to razz Kevin's balls if EC gets beat by a girl, in a race where he has a wabbit! LOL! Fredonia. LOL!

Icy Rabbit.

I'm going to take a shot on Frost Giant here. He really liked stretching out to ten furlongs, hopefully he likes 12 even more. English Channel is overrated and everyone is underrating the Euros.
