The gray gelding has been working well for Dutrow Jr.. Very tough opponent

Thank you. Why a thread about the overrated and unaccomplished Sunriver with nary a mention of the real story of this race? Diamond Stripes was the most exciting and promising late running 3YO in the country last fall. His race at the Meadowlands was exceptional ( I recommend watching the replay ) and if he comes back to his form from last year Sunriver better have a jet pack on.

Plus, the horse who received the worst ride of all time in his last start is also returning in this race.

Sunriver is, at best, the third most interesting horse in this race.
