Default Jazil=No Chance

According to the DRF, he's going to be closer to the pace, I agree with Mcglaughlin that he will be closer, because the pace will likely be softer, but sounds like they are going to put him even closer to the pace. I can't believe they are going to take the horse out of his game, that's usually disastrous. I think he will take some money, so that's a good thing...

In my opinion if I am wrong then oh well. Steppen has a better shot @ being closer to the pace on saturday for a closer, judging by his work. It's a matter on whether Pietz gives the instructions that way or if Robby A. thinks he is going to be be Pat Day...The usual take back. Just my opinion

The only reason Jazil will be closer to the pace is because they'll try to slow it on the front end to 50 and change for the half...Jz has no early speed whatsoever.

he may not have any early speed, but you need to watch the wood again,
see the horsie run,
see the horsie run fast at belmont,
see the horsie run fast at belmont and almost catch the winner in the 9th furlong.

If it rains and the track comes up sloppy, watch out because Jazil will really be flying at the end. Steppenwolfer is the more consistent closer of the two, but Jazil may be more talented, and just hasn't reached his potential yet. We shall see. I think that both of these horses will finish ahead of Bob and John.
