The 1, Scooner, looks legit to me. Stretching out to a route which he has done before against much better company. Sharp :46 work, horse looks ready to race. Mullins almost 30% in claimings, 29% turf to dirt. This one's only win came on dirt. Good late kick. I think I gotta pick him and stay out of the way of the crowd in this round. Any one in the 1st you'd take over Scooner? I don't have any replays to look at right now.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. I would be very wary of this one going 2-turns, because his SW full brother was a really good sprinter (Md MIllions Sprint, 2nd Fall Highweight, San Vicente S) who couldn't last 8f. Not a guarantee he won't stay, but a warning bell that mum's Northern Baby heritage isn't as useful here as one might expect.
