SAT - Belmont $1 Million PK4

Is there a particlular reason that you guys like Cosmo to get a grade 1? I don't think he's ever even hit the board in a grade 1. I do kind of like him, especially the improvement since switching to Prado, but I'm struggling to put him on top in my P4's because of his lack of success at this level.

I see many of you are picking Deadly Dealer to win. I have left him off my Pick 6 ticket. Can we start a quick, short discussion about his chances?

I just think that it is the simple fact that he is probably the speed of the speed and he ran a HUGE one at a slightly longer distance 2 races back and a lot of people figure the cut back will benefit him in a huge way. I will personally include him, but I plan on going very deep in this race, maybe even 8 deep as I think this and the 5th race are the most wide open of the day.

Speaking for myself, of course, about Cosmonaut, his TG figs last year, while losing, were very competitive. He is coming in 3rd off the layoff today, and I think the top horses may be vulnerable (ei English Channel, Sky Conqueror, Better Talk Now) He's next on the list. I do agree, he's been a bit of a money burner, but today's a new day, hopefully.

Yeah I'm struggling with him. I do like him, and think he has improved much this year (last race could've been huge for him without the trouble) but I just am bothered by him not NEVER hitting the board in a grade 1, let alone win one. Does anybody think the BTN maybe has just lost a step yet at the age of 8 (not every horse can pull a Tin Man
