Gorella's last two races are the key to me. She closed on the outside Saturday with such ease. I mean in 50 yards she was 6 lengths in front. Also her last race was more impressive to me. A small field, with a horse loose on the lead and she caught the horse and was drawing away at the wire. I loved Gorella last year when she made her debut at Keeneland. I think they have figured out the horse is best when able to come running on the outside. I feel Gorella can win off a slow pace and with a fast pace. Again, lb per lb she is the best turf horse.

The Tin Man is a great story and what a great horse. Even though the horse is 8-the horse really is like a 4 or 5 year old because he hasnt been worn down by continuous years of racing. To me The Tin Man needs to be able to dictate his own race. I dont think he is as versatile as a horse like Gorella or Cacique or English Channel. But he is a very very good horse.
