In many previous years, it would be possible to handicap the dirt races comparing horses and trainers with whom we were reasonably familiar, but it was difficult to assess the comparative form of the European runners in the turf races. The added dimension this year is the large Japanese contingent that seems to be a factor in both turf and dirt races, with the conclusion for many of them "could be any kind." It is going to be very difficult to put together winning tickets with that added complexity. Hopefully the payoffs will reward those who analyze (or guess) correctly.
The draw for post positions is this evening, after which the work begins in earnest - or should I just drag out my dartboard?
