Firing Line, Upstart, Itsaknockout, Danzig Moon...the stalkers

War Story, International Star, El Kabeir,Frosted, Far Right ...the closers


Makes you wonder....
Stanford will finish the race last after trying (and not being the slightest bit effective) in pressing a pace he's never seen.

War Story has tried that whole "closing/stalking deal" against much lesser and has failed 3 times in a row in NOLA.

Personally, I think this is a Barbaro-type walk over for American Pharoah.
