Im willing to toss that one. Yielding and a very pedestrian pace.

Fast and Sassy will obviously take some money, but Im reluctant from that post

The first and second finishers came from 5th and 6th.

Flying Sappho is actually interesting as well (did I really just say that??) O'Brien stretches her out after a series of sprints and he removes the blinks. Johnny V gonna try and steal this one on the front end?

If you like her, you certainly shouldn't hope she is on the lead. I'm not big on turf stretch outs, but she has run well enough going long before.

I am thinking I have to wait until Talking Horses tomorrow to find out who you like.

I don't have much of an opinion.....but I did pick Flying Sappho second.

Truth be told, the feature is the only race that holds any appeal to me at all.

I see Chestoria is entered. Something clearly went wrong in the Diana and she isnt the same horse.

She's been abused to no end this year by Johnny V sprinting. I can only imagine what he'll do to her routing; she breaks from the rail but she'll be wide, no cover, in no time.
