Wasn't Afleet express Beyer from his last win first released as like a 115?

I know it's only 6 horses, but this is a nice little field for a G3 this close to the end of the TC.

It's clearly benefitting from NYRA's decision not to run the race that was formerly called the Dwyer in early July. This is really now the lone East Coast race to get horses ready for the Haskell/Jim Dandy.

Yes, sir and it's been beaten down ever since. From a pace standpoint I think he lays over this field and that this will be his 1st step towards becoming a serious 2nd half 3YO. Considering we've been beating up all the TC horses it just seems foolish to back Jackson Bend in here at what will definitely be an underlaid price to me.
