The G2 Swaps

[miraja2]

Yeah, they let Desert Code crawl through the opening quarter in :24&3, and the opening half in :48&3, all with virtually no pressure and he STILL didn't have much left in the stretch.
But I'm just not sure this one will be any different (except perhaps for the extra sixteenth of a mile which might make the difference). He should have it all his own way until they turn for home.
Tiago seems like he might be seriously overbet here, but Sheriffs is tough first off a layoff, and he has a great record this year on the artificial stuff and in graded stakes races. Not to mention that he is going from facing horses like Curlin, Street Sense, and Rags to Riches to this undistinguished group.
Hard race to play.
