I did say lock of the year, and we are only 22 days in. But seriously i think the 5 and maybe the 1 to some extent will run the 4 into the ground. Even without that other speed the 4 has been a huge disappointment. Solent feels like the right horse to me. Unless you want the Todd/Repole. I am considering using as a B.

I found it a puzzling race and it's actually the only race on the card that, as of now, I don't have definitive picks for.

I am not betting the pik 5 I rarely do but if I was I would never toss Paytnerbythenumbers. Since you think she is useless, I will bet a few bucks, and I mean a few on Joyful Frolic, I like Gargan and he didn't drop her in for a tag YET so maybe that is a good sign. Obviously, it's a flyer

Who do we like in the 6th? I liked Beachside last time and I'm still deciding if I've seen enough of him.

Lock of the year seems like bold move on a race like this. The horse can win but so can a few of these. I think Pletcher's horse will be ready to run. Also I wouldnt leave Cariba or Stonewalker off my ticket. I'm interested to see how the pace goes and need to look into it more as race later this week.

I prefer Beachside over the entry. The rest look up against it.
