Does Shug McGaughey have a string at Arlington or is he just making a weekend invasion?

Very excited. This is a great card!

My first instinct is to anchor EVERYTHING to Golden Mexico late and just go with others in the finale with very minor coverage.

Love him in that spot.

Especially because of all the love Giant Oak will get, could be a decent score, we'll see how hilarious the Arlington crowd can be

I thought the Guineas drew light. I was hoping for another strong field so it could get graded status, last year's field was dynamite, if I recall

See, and I thought the Guineas drew pretty well, all things considered.

Who else would have come for it? Laragh is the only one that could have added any real flair to it.

I think it's a really solid race -- should be a Grade III soon enough.

pretty much.
I am hoping the race gets some fan money. GM has some dull stuff in his paper form (slow works , slow bris speed rating, 12-1shot) and Giant Oak was validated/flattered by Musket Man's presence in the Kentucky Derby / Preakness.
