Am I thinking of the right maiden race then? Terranova had one and I think the Toner Ghostzapper was in that race?

That's it - she won her debut by 13 1/4 with a 99 Beyer. . . Then went to WO and won an allowance by 3 3/4 with a 98. Most recently she was 3rd, beaten 1 1/2 as the 2-5 favorite, in the Woodbine Oaks. She got a 90 for that effort.

Yes, she debuted on Lexington day. Terranova's NJ bred was beaten at nothing to five in her next start in NJ on Memorial Day. Toner's horse was La Cloche, who won the 4th at Belmont yesterday.

Embur's Song won a N1X at Woodbine in her next start but weakened late in the Woodbine Oaks. The likelihood of her wiring the Plate is very slim in my opnion but you can guarantee she'll be well bet.

Big Red Mike?

I would've guessed Giant's Tomb, but he's not even by you-know-who. . . Does the other you-know-who know that, though?

Mobilizer.... Bet him first out at a giant price, ran well. Followed him since and I like him in this spot.

He's one of the horses that gives a hint of being able to run against the grain.

I looked at the charts of the race entrants and was impressed by BRM's last race. It appears that he set a slow pace but he ran everyone but Mobilizer off their feet early. From the chart it appears that Mobilizer put in a decent run. Then I decided to watch the replay: Mobilizer got an absolutely perfect inside suckup trip and just HUNG like a rat. BRM did all the work and Mobilizer still couldn't get by him -- after cutting the corner and coming INSIDE of BMR for the stretch run.

Now, you could argue that BRM will face other pace pressure in the race and Mobilizer will get an even better setup to run into --- like being able to make a late or last run after getting an even better 'escort' into the lane. But there's no way Mobilizer is better than BRM after their performances in the Plate Trail.
