Respect the pick, and you seem to have put a lot of thought into it. Takes some nads to go out on a limb on a 50-1 shot.

I'm in the Done Talking camp as well. I still believe that this race is going to set up for an off-the-pace type, and as hockey noted in his TDN comments, the horse has the right running style and experience navigating a large field to thrive in that kind of race. The question will be whether he's the right off-the-pace type.

I was originally going to use him on top, now he'll probably be underneath somewhere.

Just out of curiosity, does anybody have any recent data on Doug O'Neill in races outside of California?

Well, it's a known fact that he had to have some hoof work done after he was shipped to Kentucky. I can understand the sentiment.

Will put a few dollars on prospective and done talking and cover them a little in multis.
Good luck.

Rosario is clearly a move-up jockey. I've been on Great Attack starting with him running his eyeballs out vs Bridgetown at Tampa last year I believe, and always lost $$. Found a way to blow it today leaving out the 3, who is still a pig IMO.
