He's a moderately talented allowance type. Strong Contendor has flashed signs of genuine ability, and he certainly has a bad trainer to overcome, but he may turn out to be a very nice horse. Sir Greeley is an above average allowance horse.

I'd say Sir Greeley is a legit G3 level horse in open company (having won 1 and run 2nd in another) that has also run 2nd in an open G1 and an open G2. I can't say the same for Strong Pretender who has only raced in 3yo restricted races so far and done nothing to impress me. The good thing is they'll get to prove themselves on the track on Saturday (hopefully). I don't know about Sir Greeley winning the race but he will finish ahead of Strong Pretender.
