I just looked it up. No Modesty winner has ever won the Beverly D. in the same year, but only 11 have tried. Of the 21 years when both races were run, only 4 Beverly D. winners ran in the Modesty.

Tentatively...

Jakkalberry w Bayrir/SilverMax w ALL w ALL w Crackerjack King

Then backup plays focusing on Kapitale/Joviality/I'mADreamer in the 4th leg

While I'm at it, Arlington Handicap winners are 0 for 16 in the Arlington Million of the same year. Of the 29 years when both races were run, 0 Million winners ran in the Arlington Handicap. But 10 were Europeans and didn't prep in the US.

Am I crazy for thinking Upperline is going to run huge and have a shot in the Beverly D? I know stidham said before the modesty was a prep going in, or is she just a cut below these?

I probably complain about this too much, but how idiotic is the positioning of these races? Rather than put the Secretariat in the pk4, we get a $7500 claimer to close out the sequence. Nothing like going from a $1 million race to a $12,000 race.

You do have a $100k guar p5 with 15% takeout from R7 to 11
