If you watch his turf races I'm not really sure how you could label him a plodder.

Stately Victor definitely has some hidden turf form as he was given two trainwrecks for rides at Gulfstream. I think he has a good shot also.

I just can't see taking a short price on Paddy O Prado. This field is much better than he beat last time.

I totally agree, and think out of the 4 logical contenders, I will get the best price on Krypton and SV.

Paddy and Stately Victor will battle down the stretch just to taunt how little money I made on both of them.

Visually I did not like Paddy last run, seems like Kent went to work early and hard. Maybe Im wrong, but I think hes empty in the lane.

You're sure you watched the Colonial Turf Cup? He jogged while saving ground for three quarters, inhaled the leaders in a dozen jumps on the turn when asked for run, and widened with every stride the last eighth. It's tough to envision a more impressive effort.

He is tactical. Has gears and a burst, and looks to have pace to stalk or rally into. He can adjust to any pace scenario and shouldn't get beat.
