That was a pace which was well within his range. It might not be the same way this time. While he is not a need the lead runner, he's going to run close to the pace which will be much faster than his last race. In the DOnn he'll have the reigning HOF not far behind stalking as well as Strong Contender.
This race looks like Invasor will win. But Strong Contender has shown flashes of talent. If you believe trainer talk, John Ward said prior to his last race that he was not ready and would need the race

I think there's a single in the prior race so I will add another horse to my pick3 and pick4 tickets. I'm leaning towards Strong Contender right now as my upset possibility. This could change in the next 17 hours.

Can I ask who your single is in the prior race? While I plan to play Naissance Royal pretty hard, i will also be backing him up quite a bit. I going fairly wide in that one.
