Numerous times at Saratoga when asked about horses he stated the old "he probably needs a race" and sure enough they did. But I didn't hear that yesterday, and the "I've had him long enough to know he's a nice horse" got me a little excited about getting a little bit of a price. Only thing I didn't like was no Garcia or Bravo aboard, and he looks much better than the one Garcia is riding.
I wavered back and forth about him and Rabatash. It's a very tough race. Waiting for scratches which might help. First pass at the P4 had both the 2 & 3, but I couldn't make the play work. If I play the 4 I'll likely use them. The Godolphin entry looks to be real; I like the two prices (Sensational Humor and Ground Hero); and the favorite while vulnerable, isn't a stiff either. This is why I was so stunned when I came across the race Monday. It's a corker...
