Wow, what a nice/tough race. It seems like every time that we've expected a speed duel this meet, the colony has let someone steal it on the front end.
Ward's-Almost an Angel is also entered in the With Anticipation (GII-vs the boys) the next day as well. Gotta think that her price will be more appealing that the Pletcher breaking from the rail.
The Brown horse is the one I'm having trouble with, just not sure what to do with about her.
While I agree that the Clement horse could pick up the pieces if this thing falls apart, the horse that really intriuges me is the Ward/Ramsey horse breaking from the outside. I feel like she will appreciate the stretchout at an attractive price.
So I would probably be 4 deep in exotics and play around with the 9 a bit (meaning that the Pletcher will roll at 6/5).
Definitely an interesting race to discuss, I'm curious to hear other opinions too, thanks for bringing it up Mikey.
