He's not my top choice but I can't toss him with the way he's come to hand this year. Word is he's been training great and in a Classic field this weak, you have to include the hot horse IMO.

From Mike Welsch

Work of the day:

Haynesfield (Classic, four furlongs in 50 seconds): The final time was less important than the manner in which the Jockey Club Gold Cup winner went about this easy half-mile breeze. Breaking off about two jumps from the pole rather than taking the long run up that’s common place before any nongate work, Haynesfield completed his opening eighth-mile in 13.05, and with exercise rider Cesare Chavez grabbing into him a couple of times around the turn went an opening quarter in a pedestrian 25.96. He proceeded to shade 25 seconds for the final quarter while just cruising along on his own courage and then did his best running in the gallop out from the wire to the seven-eighths pole, tugging his rider through another furlong in 12.55 while striding out smoothly and effortlessly around the bend. He has made a good appearance all week and appears to really be flourishing coming up to Breeders’ Cup Day.

That horse had more machines and wires hooked up to him yesterday than I have ever seen in my life .

I would like to know if they do this to him all the time or just started this.
