Would you think a soft pace would help Equitable or Dancing Forever?

From what it looks to me, Dancing Forever will likely be the second choice to Red Rocks and from a win bet perspective will not offer much value exotics aside. At 1 1/2 I am willing to take Better Talk Now, 2 back a race maybe some will forget he ran a very good race but he encountered traffic trouble. If he runs back to that race he could be tough, the lack of pace is disconcerting that is why I wondered earlier why Motion chose not to enter his pacemaker this time out.

I'm actually glad Red Rock is scratched. Hes the kind of horse I would bet against but beat me as the lukewarm favorite. Hes a headache I didnt need.
Kills the price on Dancing Forever, but I am against him too.

I would have bet against both of them if conditions remained the same, now I'm probably laying off this race, unless Frankel pulls a fast one and enters the Chomp.
