Seems like every other horse was just spinning their wheels, except Ice Box who in my opinion should of won the race. He also won his only stakes victory over the same surface months back(horse for the course). Now we have a track where the surface will be a 180 from what he just ran on and a fast track that he has yet to win on this year. The horse is a gamer and has only been out of the money once in seven starts but the talk of him winning "by daylight" and in a "walkover" like most people on here are saying is nonsense. Nice horse but not a world beater by far and will be exposed in this race.
I hear where you are coming from, but his pattern says otherwise and in fact is explosive when it comes to big race performances...That being said, he is not Smarty Jones, but guess what, look at this field and the crop of 3 yr olds at this point. There is very little standing in his way here at all.
