The Dream Rush of 2008 and 2009 is not the same horse who won The Test.
The unknown is 3 Seventh Street. She destroyed much weaker fields in NY and is taking a major class hike. Can she rate and finish strong against the toughest field she's faced? I don't know.
I think Dick Dutrow's horse will come off the pace. By The Light is a confusing horse. However anything Dutrow puts on the track in a wide open race merits respect. If a horse is going to win from off the pace why not Fascinatin' Rhythm? It's her home track and she cuts back in distance. Richard Small can still train a horse with his current stats a statistical anomaly. Access Fee looks like a talented filly. I think she has a good chance in this race.
If I had to put in my wager now I'd go 4,5,8 in leg 1.
