6/22 (WO): 149th Queen's Plate (Gr. I)

[blackthroatedwind]

Even money in a 14 horse field?

The usual $16K monopoly money?

"Ginger Brew, whose presence adds plenty of spice to the Queen's Plate, is the only filly in the field and comes off a smashing victory for trainer Brian Lynch in the 1 1/8-mile Woodbine Oaks on June 8. "Supplemented to the Queen's Plate at a cost of $25,000, Ginger Brew will break from post 10 after drawing the eighth pick and is the projected third choice at 4-1 under returning rider Javier Castellano.

There are 5 maidens and 11 horses eligible for a N1X in the Queen's Plate and a filly is going to be a heavy favorite. Get your PPs handy.

It's a pretty thin field to say the least. The filly is OK....but so is Bond's maiden that ran second in the Plate Trial.

Probably not a good price but I like Not Bourbon and even Palmers a little.

Ginger Brew was impressive the way she handled the kickback in the OAKs. Castellano shipped in and rode that race as if he wasn't the least bit aware that there is a massive kickback cloud. She has sharper faster races than Solitaire thus far. Needs to use the tactical speed a bit more.

Solitaire is the best animal. He will have to circle the field after a grueling trip to win.

tough race to handicap.
