On the undercard, there's an interesting race. The Singspiel...btw a pretty good horse by In The Wings out of Glorious Song.

This is not a tough field thus there is some value for Pellegrino here, yes he's 9 and yes his form looks over the top, however that last race he had no business being in, far too tough for him at this stage of his career.

The 2 probably favorites look beatable in Rahy's Attorney who got a dream trip in the Connaught and he picks up 4 lbs to 125, plus I'm not sure the distance will be to his liking and Marchfield who will probably be overbet is coming into this off only a modest allowance win at CD. Despite his nice pedigree he seems to be only an average horse at this stage of his career.

1. Pellegrino
2. Marchfield.
3. Rahy's Attorney

Eh not the price I was hoping for but I did ok. . . I'm glad the Queen's Plate winner got lost on the board like that - I didn't have much of an opinion on the race but he seemed like a steal at 9/2. Got a little lucky at the end when he wouldn't switch leads.

Marchfield's modest win at Churchill is not the preferred distance for this horse imo.
I think he can run forever. The field gets spread out, and he gets his back of the pack clean run and pounces. Problem is the price.

My picked stunk in that one, however I'm happy for Attfield record 8th Plate I believe. A shot of Bourbon!

Hockeys horse easy wire job.
Lots of horse there.

If hockey reads this:

did you think they would try and wire the field like that?
