The polytrack version of a harrowing device.

with the race off the turf , Riley Tucker has new life. He rebounded fairly well with the class drop last time. His synthetic race at Arlington was what got Mott excited in the first place. Arlington is a pretty similar track although a bit less tiring.

watch the two 9 furlong races. Prussian could be the toss of the day if it looks really tiring.

i'm still not over the Count Fleet but Barrier reef will have every chance to like the surface if you like his talent..

pretty wide open, maybe if u do toss Prussian you gamble and include a lot?

I'm very much against Prussian here. Between speed never holding on the Keeneland poly and being overrated as a 2YO anyways, I would be surprised if he even hit the board.

Barrier Reef, now that the race has been switched over, is the right play at 3/1 or higher. Riley Tucker also merits consideration at 6/1 or better.
