Icabad isn't very good. . . and I'll reserve judgment on Casino Drive - but I doubt he's "monstrous." Anything close to UH's debut and he wins geared down. Now, obviously, he could end up not being very good. . . but he has more potential than the rest of this field put together.

It's a bit early to say Travers winner, but it shall be interesting to see how he runs.

How in the heck does everyone already know who is going to win the Travers...and the worst part is I'm getting different answers already?? What gives? Someone at least give me the 10 or 11 or 9 or 7 or 13 horses in the starting gate first.

Some horses that ran behind Unbridled's Heart have come back to improve dramatically off that race. Impressive firsters can be flashes in the pan but I will be very surprised if Unbridled's Heart doesn't accomplish some serious things if he stays sound. I have seen very few debut performances, at least in the last few years, as impressive as his.

For what it's worth he was schooling in the Belmont Paddock during the day yesterday.
