If Itsmyluckyday couldn't beat him in the Derby where Verrazano pressed that pace...I don't see how he'll beat him here.

They're both talented horses who should have nice 2nd halves of the year. I don't see much of a gap between them at all.

1/5 seems a little strong but I think Verrazano is a likely winner and just a faster horse than Itsmyluckyday's. The Derby was a debacle, and if you toss the slow pace wood win you still are left with two very fast races to go off of and I just don't see anyone challenging his initial speed so he is likely to get the best trip.
This maybe a case as well in say the pick four that both horses are about equally weighted on the tickets so that to me creates a little bit of value.

Smith said afterward that he felt the son of Lawyer Ron was off in his left hind and he pulled him up as a precautionary measure.
"It felt like a left hind. He actually broke really sharp and was just about to go up to press (front-running) Verrazano and I felt something behind," the Hall of Fame rider said. "I wasn't going to take a chance and decided it was better to be safe than sorry so I just took the cautious road." Itsmyluckyday, a local favorite among the record 28,951in attendance for the Father's Day feature, was taken back to trainer Eddie Plesa Jr.'s stable for further examination.

The early DNF to Itsmyluckyday contributed to the race turning into a paid public workout for a talented winner.
  Why is it that the Internet persona of so many respectable racehorses always sucks?

96 Beyer figure, not impressed I guess as he set what seemed to me very pedestrian fractions so I am almost certain to play against him if there is anything in the race next out that can push him.

Ed Plesa this a.m., limited Xrays with racetrack technology negative on Itsmyluckyday but full bone scan to be performed for complete picture. Not in any discomfort. Mentioned pelvic area or something else 'up high'. Believes at this point that whatever issue is, should not be career threatening and 'doesn't say that as being too optimistic.'
