You are right, great looking card. Nice looking baby turf route in the 5th.

I was just about to post the same message. What a card. The $100k/optcl is stakes quality, the Quick Call looks loaded with speed and should be a blast to watch, even the open claiming early on looks good.

Ehh...looks like a Pletcher chalk romp. The Howard is promising except for the fact it's a Howard horse.

That's just it, Coach. The Pletcher, imo, is gonna be overbet. The mare has dropped a couple nice runners (G3 winners in France) by Royal Academy, but her lone other foal out of AP Indy has never hit the board in 5 races. I will be looking to beat her.
