I've watched all three of the big guns, and they look pretty evenly matched to me.

If it comes up soft, I'll go with Shirocco. Hurricane Run didn't switch leads down the stretch in the Prix Foy until they hit the wire. It may have impacted the outcome of the race. Every time Hurricane Run switches leads, he usually takes off with a tremendous burst of speed. However, Shirocco showed his heart and class, and held him all the way. Still, Hurricane Run may can beat this guy.

However, I think Deep Impact's heart gets him to the wire first. He is probably the prettiest moving horse that I have ever seen. He looks as if he is running on air he touches the ground so light. His turn of foot is phenomenal. I love this guy! What a race this is shaping up to be.

Who else is running? Pride? Heart's Cry?

One thing is for sure...this is going to be a race for the ages. We'll be talking about the champion of this race for years to come.
