Is #2 Stud Muffin being sold short in the feature. His only start on turf April 11 at Belmont prior to a pretty solid improvement the last 4 months he was ridden by a far lesser jock. Now he gets Kent the turf monster after winning 2 of his last 3 with the last being at the spa with Bejarano just 9 days previously.
Galluscio is off to a very nice start and at ML 15-1 maybe Stud Muffin can get it done. Kent seems to be winning these turf races from behind and stole one last week from in front which would probably be the tactic here with no supercloser in this field.
For my money he's a key with the 5# Thunder Estimate and #7 Good Prospect (#1e Solid Strike/Stunt Man underneath for tri plays)
