Anyone kicking out Presious Passion really needs to take a long look at his races. This is a front runner that's able to ACCELERATE in the lane when the closers come to him. And, this is NOT after running crawling fractions. This horse is able to run a wicked pace and do this. And, he can also duel and do it. And, on more than one occasion he's come back again after being passed in the stretch.
I'm just hoping for a firm course.

I dont remember TFM ever liking a horse this much.
This is at least the 4th time I have saw him tout Presious Passion.

Brass Hat, Proudinsky, Banrock, Quasicobra and Spice Route are not in this race to try and run him down. He wins I will tip my cap to him. I don't even think he will hit the board.

No idea, it pays well though regardless of outcome, I think the pool from last year had 700k in it or something, it was monsterous....

It paid nearly $600 for a dollar in 2007 with Shamdinan, Royal Highness, and Jambalaya.

The pool is usually huge and there's plenty of value to be had.

haven't been feeling well to handicap or feel like looking @ the field, but Einstein is nothing to worry about in a big turf race. If there are any decent grade I or grade II horses in the field he most likely gets slightly to moderately overbet as usual, and beat.
