Yeah, I'd be worried about the course, too, if it had horses like St. Nicholas Abbey, Midday, and Sarafina on it.

I guess beating $50k claimer Falcon Rock for the twentieth time will prove that he's a top class turf horse.

I'm not disagreeing with you... I'm not suggesting anone who takes heart medication remember to before this very exciting G1.

That said though, I do hope Bourbon Bay wins here.

I know I'm guilty of having a lot of slow favorites (oh be quiet!) but he's pretty consistent as far as hitting the board goes... hope it's his day to shine even if the field ain't exactly stellah!

Good luck to No Stadium in the race before this one. He's the longest shot on the board (m/l is 20/1) for some ridiculous reason...
