If the Cigar Mile was at Belmont it would be a great matchup. ST is a nice horse away from BEL and a FREAK at BEL. The Cigar Mile is at the big A which has not been as kind to Train.

The horse that Discreet Cat defeated last time out in the allowance race was beaten today in the same allowance condition at Belmont Park.
I'm not so sure I'd say he would win by ten lengths, these are better than Contessa's horse that he beat last out.

As usual on the internet there is a substantial chasm between Discreet Cat's actual ability and his perceived ability.

I wonder if it's the anonymity factor.

no,
its the fact that he beat Invasor without being asked at all.
in fact, he has beaten every horse he has ever faced without being asked.

Testimony ( another Darley/Godolphin horse ) finished second in that same race. Have you noticed how he has run in his two starts in America?

And, by the way, Discreet Cat was certainly " asked " in his race in Saratoga.
