Not a bunch of killers in there for City of Light. Certainly a better chance to hang around near the front end here than in the Met Mile IMO.

Heck I thought he was the only horse at Oaklawn that looked like he wanted 10 furlongs.

Who does he need to be scared of in the Met?

The Gold Cup is a Grade 1 at home but not all Grade 1’s mean the same thing. Accelerate is proven at the distance. I’d take my shot in NY. I’d also bet him in the Met, I’ll skip betting this race.
