knowing some of the horses heading that way, i think her getting in the top two is a reach.

That's fine, but I'm taking a stand.

Although there are many nice horses, I see more versatality in her.

The Tin man is a great horse to root for, especially since Honu helps train him!
But if you really think that barely hanging on agaisnt those horses after cutting a soft pace(but nowhere near as soft a pace as he set in the Million) makes him a legitmate BC Turf contender, well, then we will just have to strongly disagree.

oh yeah, she's versatile--definitely a strong point that goes in her favor. gorella for instance is NOT. she's a damn good horse, but closers are so easily knocked out of their game.

but that mare from england is always at the top of her game, and will be taking both a weight and comp break when she runs at churchill. if i had to single one from the eight races, it'd be ouija board..

I like her too.....behind Wait A While, just like I had her behind Intercontinental last year.
