Impressive run by Chatain. I'd expect the Beyer to come in around 110. Interesting to note that Rexson's Rose ran a 1:08.98 for the first six furlongs while the Mr Prospector was won in 1:08.84. They may have spotted RR in the wrong race although it is likely that he would have had to duplicate the frontrunning performance in the Hal's Hope while off the pace in the Mr P which is far from a given. Nice run by the top three finishers to sit 2-4 off that pace and hang on to decisively beat the rest of the field. I'd think all of the top three have a legit shot at taking down a G1 this year. At least they all do if Sir Greeley can start switching his leads and get rid of this seconditis.
