I could see a Seymourdini like performance out of him on Saturday. Especially with his obvious tactical advantage.
I always thought Matt for the better of the two anyways. She is a fantastic trainer

Although I'm a BIG fan of Mind Your Biscuits, I wonder how he'll react from the Dubai trip....... I think Ticonderoga will just LOVE the distance & at 15-1 is a HUGE way to finish off the pick 5 sequence!

Seems like everyone is down on Battalion Runner. I obviously disagree. Do think Zito is 2nd most likely though.

I think Unified is tough in this spot and trip which may be right outside a slow pace.
