I disagree about Balletto.. She ran a huge race behind Fleet Indian, who got away with absolute murder on the front end.. Two turns and the long stretch at CD should help her out a lot provided she actually gets some pace in front of her.

Also, who are the great milers Ashkal Way has to fear? I'm seriously wondering, because this year's BCM, usually one of the best races of BC day, appears to be coming up light.
