SM is working lights out, but it is no shocker based on the speed ball that he is. I think he is a bet against, but not sure where to land. I like Neko Bay but 8 months off is a lot to overcome, but he will have the set up. I found it interesting that Cnak choose hanger County rather then ride back on Neko....I guess it is possible Drysdale wanted Espinoza though. Racketeer at 9/2 is appealing. The 5th is a great race too - lots of talented horses, and this is a great pk4 for a Friday.

We argued about this a while back on here (not you and I but a whole group), he is a bet against the rest of his life, he ran that huge back at Keeneland that is he DONE, and will ALWAYS be bet because of that effort.
