Agreed, if you look at the past performances in the nominations his early pace figures are all under 90 except for two of his more disappointing races, the Carter and Met Mile when he went 108 and 110 early. They can't keep him too close to a hot pace if he is going to have a chance here.

I initially liked this horse, but I think the race sets up against him. I think the horse is going to be too close to the pace and sort of fizzle out down the stretch.

I'm hoping they see that too and keep him off it.

Do you think the horse wants to lay back?

Sure, he's come from the back before, he doesn't seem like the type that minds sitting back at all.

I think you'll see Sir Greeley taking off the pace in here. Theres 2 or 3 in here that are much quicker early on including the favorite Sweet Saint. I wouldnt be surprised to see Greeley sitting 7th or 8th in here.

I'm going with a price; Chatain. He loves the one turn mile, is versatile and Penna can light it up off the long layoff. I'll key him with SNS and Sir Greely in exactas and also use him in pick 3s and pick 4s
