Circular Quay may well win this weekend, as the race is not super tough, but so far he is all talk and no substance.
I kind of agree with both of DrugS's points about Hard Spun ( God I hate when that happens ) but would say Adore the Gold is somewhat underrated. I think the entire FOY may be a garbage race but he is the only one I want out of that race.

I felt that Hal's My Hope ran a decent race as well in the FOY. What did you think?
