A grade 1 race worth 750K can only draw 4 horses?
That is embarassing....and Pletcher doesn't have anyone to enter here?
Interesting that in early Spring, it looked like he was loaded with Flower Alley, Bandini and Harlington all having a shot to be a factor this year.
Now, they're all MIA or unofficially retired, I guess.

Even if Wanderin Boy runs off, to try and set the table for Andromedas Hero, the field is too small to make Bernardini work hard to get the lead eventually.

The only thing that can beat Bernadini is the jockey pullin the Desormeax on Premium Tap and i don't see him doing that

I think Bernardini is beatable here.

You honestly never know how Dylan Thomas's form is going to be over the dirt.

I think Wanderin Boy is very underrated and it would be a big mistake to let him get loose on the lead with soft fractions. Bernardini may be better than him but I don't know if he is enough better to run him down if he lets him run 6 in 1:13.
