Instead, QR will likely be in a garden spot behind Past The Point who probably won't go crazy up front.

Meanwhile, in the turf race, is Adagio a rabbit for Court Vision?

This seems like the perfect spot for Kent Desormeaux to do something off the wall with Mambo Meister. Quality Road is at his best (and Velazquez is as well) stalking from the outside of a rival, so getting him into position may be difficult. Even with early traffic trouble, if it exists, QR should absolutely man-handle that band of bums.

Court Vision will likely be 2/5 and yes, Adagio is likely a rabbit for him. I think the Chief may have been hustled to run Le Grand Cru there just to get six horses.
