Too Much Bling - not even the best three year old
Songster - not a chance
Henny Hughes - very strong but if the race were tomorrow I'd go for older horses
Surf Cat - strong closing kick and pace would be there.
Silver Train - toss. not at Belmont
Spooky Mulder - all the heart in the world but not near quick enough for these
Battle Won - have to quit giving this horse chances
Bordonaro - best pure sprinter IMO
Commentator - Beyers indicate hes the best
Sun King - refuses to win

Im a HUGE Surf Cat fan and have been for a while, but I would have to see him race of the surface before betting him in that spot. Now, if the race was in Cali...I would have no problem betting him.

Im with Kev DeCat if healthy and can adapt away from the left coast is the best . Im not sure if he goes in the sprint. About any on the card would be his.Turf ,dirt ,sprint or classic. He is just the fastest out there at all distances. I think he could even take Kevs EC on the turf.

Im sure I would never have to choose, but push comes to shove, my license plate says it all.

I agree with you 1st Sat on just about everything. But I may put HH above SC. But that would be a close one.
