Think he'll have to rate off the pace to win?

Nice finish by Keen Ice. Otherwise, that race looked like a tractor pull.

I was really skeptical 10 years ago that a real turf program could be built up through the addition of BCJT's... boy was I wrong. Proof today when both BC winners come back and win what's probably the biggest 3yo turf races. Both races were loaded with talent, both American and Euro.
