It will be an easy "G1" victory for Chrome then against that field.

Are they gonna keep the horse wide to avoid trouble at all costs on the turf also?Not a fan of that kind of trip, but this field isn't the toughest either.

If he does beat this weak field.. Will it be enough to clinch HOY or even 3 yr of the year?

If Trevor says "They'd need to sprout wings…" then yes.

I'll be there in person to see it happen


from TRD clocker

California Chrome 11/23 DMR/FM 4F 52.0b
Appeared very comfortable over the local lawn despite many people
sharing their two-cents on how slow the drill was. The work was a
perfect introduction to grass & this colt will love the change in footing.
13 4/5, 26 3/5. Final ¼ in 25 2/5 while under a strangle hold. Just
finished watching him galloping on Thanksgiving morning @ 7:00 AM
on the grass & my opinion stays the same. The 2 time classic winner
may be better on the grass.

Why would him winning today matter at all for HOY? Bayern has destroyed him 2x now. If he wanted a prayer for HOY he should have shipped for the Cigar Mile or Clark.

I guess we will all just have to wait and see how the voting goes. Personally I don't really give a crap one way or the other who wins.
