I happen to think last year's BC Classic was at best an ordinary group. Saint Liam was a fairly nice horse who was questionable at 1 1/4, and considering how well Suave ran while contesting the pace I have a lot of trouble projecting Flower Alley's performance as anything particularly special.
I don't see any St Liams this year though. Is FA at Ghostzapper level? No. But I think this older group is subpar.
