These are nice races and the card is solid.

Interesting decision to cut Warrior's Reward back to 6 furlongs. He's going to take money and will be a horrible bet in the Phoenix. Giving weight on a course that he ran poorly over last year at a distance that's at least a furlong shorter than his best is a bad idea.

I'm surprised they're staying the sprint route with him and not looking more at the Dirt Mile. He could have prepped in the Kelso and carried basically level weights with the favorites but is instead giving weight (albeit 2 lbs) to a freaky sprinter like Hollywood Hit.

Charlie Lopresti's Wise Dan is an interesting horse, I thought his Derby day race was good and the nation has become a little bit more familiar with him thanks to Here Comes Ben.
