I agree wholeheartedly. I think he will run well but not win and he's an underlay in here considering he isn't even as fast as American Lion who is 30-1.

Conveyance drew nice. Lets just say he relaxes a little. I don't see any horse in here that is much better.

Agree as well. Turning for home, in the slop, maybe he gets away.

SC will be a lot higher than 5-1. Battaglia is smoking something with that line. My guess. 10-1 out there.

I don't think he'll be that high, but yeah, it seems like Battaglia didn't have a contingency plan for the favorites drawing inside and out. I also doubt LaL will be lower than 4-1.

At least he's not calling the race. I think Ice Box drew ok if Lezcano can not get pinned into the turn....LAL below 4-1 I think.

With Sidney's past problems stumbling at the gate, the 20 spot actualy ensures he doesn't get sandwiched and left without any hope to recover.
He still has got a lot of work to do, but he has enough tactical speed where I think he can overcome the wide post.
Lookin at Lucky...I have my doubts.

AL's odds are screwed up as well. He won't be 30-1 in there IMO.

I agree with you. If he can handle an off-track I think he'll do fine.

You know everone seems to be talking about Sidney's Candys tactical speed and maybe his ability to rate. But he has been first at every call so far this year. Maybe he can, but it seems like alot to ask for by him breaking from the 20 hole. Not to mention Talamo not panicing if things don't go his way early. I'm not sure he has that kind of Big Brown move in him.
