Dullahan almost seems too good to be true.

Should get a perfect setup, handled the track before, working well. The problem is EVERYONE (including myself) likes him, so I worry about the price, even with Hansen in there.

I agree completely. You look at the race and it's almost hard to imagine him losing without a serious incident. Nothing is ever that easy at the racetrack.

Looking at Dullahan's PP's and seeing the lack of mid 90 Beyer's that a horse like Hansen has, I think Dullahan will have to be 5:1 or more.

race looks like a possible set up for Dullahan but don't like the fact that he's 1-5 even throwing out his first two sprint races. His one winning race on this track won't win this race. I rather take a shot with Ever So Lucky at his price or Great Howe who seems to find a way to win.

But the way he finds to win has been on the rail and at the front of slowly paced turf races. In this race doesn't the exact opposite (caught wide & facing a fast pace) appear more likely?

I'm not expecting Great Howe to be in the front. Hoping someone or others will do the dirty work up front against Hansen. Grass horses can handle the synthetics.
