King Guillermo draws well, Tiz the Law, not so much.

Not going to play the Favorite as my main "A" colt but 17 hole does not bother this Monster at all!

I'd much rather Tiz the Law draw outside than inside and possibly get boxed in like he did in his other Churchill start. I'm going to give all the horses a fresh look but I'm not sure I see him losing, regardless of post position.

I know I’m in the minority, but I don’t see Tiz the Law winning. He was pointed for the Travers. To me, that was the most important race for the connections to win. I understand that if you’re from there, that’s the race. Can he hold his form ? Maybe. He looked as good as one can look in the Travers. One of those situations when I bet on a good price as a bettor, but as a fan of the sport, I root for the Sackatoga guys to win. Some people don’t understand this thinking, but cashing the bet is a consolation prize if he gets beat by the King.
