This is a crazy year with no horse stepping up as of yet so if you like Sway Away, I wish you the best.
Do you really think there is that big of a difference between 9f and 9.5f?

I don't think he's a particularly likely win candidate, but I won't be playing any trifectas that don't include him underneath.
