I used the 8 and 9. If the 9 was coming off a month layoff, and not 13 months, no trip handicapper on the planet wouldn't be sending it in.
I struggled a lot with the finale. Trainers numbers gave me serious pause, but ultimately decided to go with Aegean based on Beyers and good run over the inner. Was hoping to see a wire job. Made sure to cover on AB and C ticket. Did put quite a bit of emphasis on him though...

Based on how the races are currently going, I would have to say the 8 & 9 probably merit more consideration than I gave them. Layoff on the 9 was the difference between an "A" amd a "C" for me. Very well may prove wrong.
