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

Loved Defiant Honors last probably going to single her.

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.

I like Messi, a lot. Highland Sky is always bet and Chad will be bet. 3-1 is fair on Messi IMO.

IW looks like the only speed.

He wasn't a gate scratch.

Probably about three minutes. He ran off, with Jose on him, after the post parade, and was so out of control that he made an entire loop around the track. The Stewards chose to scratch him. Sure seemed like the right call for everyone involved.

Definitely, I wasn't questioning the decision. He is obviously head strong during his races, my point was he could get hooked early.
