I'd find a stretch battle between Aikenite and Taqarub riveting.

I'm also anxious to see if Charles Lopresti can prove this year that he's not just a newer version of John Ward. His horses never run, they got good for about two months and then poof, they were all gone.

I wonder if they will keep Aikenite sprinting this year.

Of course, if he runs well they'll probably try the Met Mile next. Or the Sword Dancer.

Wasn't Data Link pointing to the Blue Grass?

Minor issue. He is out

I really like Brilliant Speed in here. Any chance that he drifts out to 8-1 - 10-1 range.

I really like him too - doesn't he have to be 10-1+ easy?

I'm worried that he takes money and isn't going to look as nice at 4-1 or 9-2. I think this going to be a sweet betting race.

Nice job, guys. Looking at the pedigree, his 2nd dam is a full sister to Touch Gold, half to With Approval. I don't suppose he's magically developed an affinity for dirt since age 2, has he? I feel like I'm tilting at windmills when I get hopeful about there being a G1 caliber, ungelded son of Dynaformer that likes dirt (besides Barbaro obviously) and doesn't get sold overseas.
