Faces Love My Mountain who just ran in the Summit of Speed.

Any thoughts?

I Love this horse, he's all speed. I remember when he made his 3yo debut at Turfway, he hadn't run since like September and ran in the Hansel Stakes on the Spiral Undercard, he lit it up in 1:08 and change, my buddy and I both looked at each other and said there's the Sprint winner, didn't happen, but still loved the horse. I was at the Breeders Cup at Churchill, when he ran a sub 21 opening quarter, Durkin was amazed you could hear it in his voice...

He ran admirably in the BC Sprint against a tough field. That was back when the sprint division was absolutely loaded. I clobbered him the second time he won in Dubai.

Not sure how this race "sets up" for him.

I mean does a 2F race even "set up" or is it who breaks the best?

expecting sloppy/off at Calder.

Hard for me to like Caller One here. Been too long since he broke well.

What about Zafin here? 3rd of 17 in Agrentina G1. Good trainer, 6-4-0-0-1 lifetime. Won first out and off a layoff. Looks like 8,9 and 11 are the ones to beat here, at least to me.

What about Love my Mountain? Or is it impossible to win from the rail going
2F?

I think it is, especially on an off track. No bigger LMM fan than me, but I can't see him here.

always liked caller one, hope he has a successful return.

Gander,
Love My Mountain is scratched.
