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.

The 2 horses likely to be overbet in the Plate are Ginger Brew and Solitaire. I'm going to backtrack a little on an earlier opinion I made of Not Bourbon not being able to get the 1 1/4, it's still a question mark but after reviewing the Plate Trial the only horse making ground on him was Solitaire in the stretch. If there are enough question marks about him getting the 1 1/4 and he goes off as the third choice I'd say he would be the one to look at, a longshot to look at also would be Sebastian's Cat who made a early move on the turn, abeit premature. He could run better.

Queen's Plate? Canadian racing? Irrelevant.

You know, it's funny, if someone had said that "Canada was irrelevant" it would have caused much less of an outroar here than when someone said that Canadian racing is irrelevant.
