I also find Vineyard Haven interesting. Frankel purchased this one privately for himself, and immediately sends him to the toughest spot he could find, not a typical Frankel move, which indicates to me he thinks he's got something...
I think that the El Corredor colt that got up for second in Desert Party's debut might turn out okay, and if I remember correctly, somebody else in there impressed me a bit with a fairly big run down the stretch from well back. It wasn't a great group to be sure, but I don't know if I would describe them as awful.

Vineyard Haven is certainly interesting as well. It really is too bad that the favorite scratched. It looked like a very intriguing race.
