That's great news. Maybe the Carter and Met will be exciting this year. Daaher is supposed to be pointing there as well ( for whatever that proves to be worth ).

If Daaher is there, I fully expect to see a good effort from him. Wouldn't be at all surprised to see a win.

What if Commentator is there as well? Would make it unlikely Daaher would get his dream trip.

I'm not sure that Daaher has to get a lonely lead to win. It certainly helped his cause in the Cigar but I thought he showed some fight in the Jerome, albiet against far lesser. I think that the return to one-turn could help him return to form.
