One of the better Schuylerville renewals I can remember.

The 4th is loaded. Mott's horse intrigues me.

Its a good race, but I think that Mott horse is overbet off the Honest Lady in the pedigree.

I like the Godolphin horse cutting back off the layoff, probably was never meant to route and his mdn win is better than anything in here. It is a deep field so hopeful the betting goes favorable.

Takaful could be a big time sprinter, but there looks to be a lot of speed. Can he rate? Im not sure. I have to use him defensively, I am a little concerned with him being a recent gate scratch at Belmont.
Hard Scramble could trip out at like 12-1.

I think the 7th race is kind of interesting. Messi and Highland Sky look like the two best horses but Infinite Wisdom ran too well to lose last time and if they let him go he certainly can beat this group, though its better than his last foes. Not sure what to make of the Chad Brown horse, his last certainly was not good.

He wasn't a gate scratch.

Is this because the field is evenly matched? It seems rather so so talent wise, i wasnt really able to separate them much.

In this day and age, horses are almost never going to come into this race with more than 1 or 2 starts. With that said, this is a pretty stout group in that they all earned solid speed figures thus far, and the pair of stakes winners did so against males and in a very fast race.

The Schuylerville has had some future GI winners and some rather subpar winners. This feels like a running where the winner will end up being OK.

I think you're not remembering how weak on figures this race usually is. And no, it doesn't hurt that they're evenly matched and coming from all different directions. Fascinating race.
