Well, I'm sure the chosen rider change will solve that problem.

This is also a MUCH tougher spot.

The only thing she has going for her, and this is after just a lengthy glance at the race, is that she has the speed to stay close and there's very little speed in the race.

It's 1/5 that Prado buries her on the inside and she never sees the light of day.

Agreed. . . can't decide if she's good enough.

She feels like a horse you almost hope gets beaten reasonably badly, with the expected no shot trip Nick described, and then she gets in a more reasonable spot upstate. At least we know 5 1/2 won't be a problem.

Andy or Nick have any thoughts on Cape Blanco? She was quite a 3 year old but hasn't shown much this year but would O'Brian ship unless she was working good?

Cape Blanco's not a "she". . . and will be a very big underlay.

Cape Blanco won pretty easily over the Michael Jordan with the Wizards Gio Ponti.
