Zito Comes to His Senses
Says he may well start Sun King on Saturday which is what he should've done all along. This, for my money, gives him a chance back in the BCC. Training up to it would've been a mistake.

I hope he goes if he isn't too tired. If all systems are go with Sun King here's a shout out: RUN THE HORSE ZITO!!!. I don't that that training him up to the BCC would have necessarily hindered his chances in the race if he was already tired. I've become quite a fan of Sun King.

Yes Blackthroat, that's I said he "may well be" running....I thought he would when Invasor went out. Odds he runs. 80/20.

I dont know. Horse fires big every other time and last time in the Woodward was one of his off efforts. He'll run big in the JCGC but wont be as tough in the Classic. I wanna play him in the Classic real bad, esp. if Ball Four runs, so I say keep him out. Save him for Churchill!

Bernardini doesn't have to win this. I still think 10 panels is not Sun King's game, but they don't have a flat mile race in the BC which is what they should have.

I think the Met Mile and the Cigar Mile are the two best stakes of the year in NY ( though the Whitney seems to be the most exciting year in and year out ). One thing about Sun King and 1 1/4, while I tend to agree with you, he hasn't gone that far since recently elevating his game. His races in the Commonwealth, Met, Whitney and probably even the Woodward are arguably the best races he has ever run. He may just be at the top of his game. |

SUn King is a born loser, a hanger with no heart and class, During his 3 yr old yr he could compete with the best but barely win at the group 1 level

The JCGC seems to me like a big moneymaker.
Bernardini is goin to be 3/5 or 4/5 and although tons of people dont think he needs/wants to be on the lead, he will be pushing the rabbit Spanish Chestnut for the first 7/7.5f. Guys like it or not Spanish Chestnut only has 1 job and that is to get out there and run like he is running a sprint,and Bernardini is not gonna like being far back,and if Chestnut runs the fractions they want him to you could finally see Bernardini dying in the stretch. (Note-Even tho this is not the best field, there will be no Double Galore,High Finance,or Hemingway's Key run against him going into the stretch) Now I like Sun King alot,however like most say this is not his distance and if there are 9 or 10 horses in the race he might have a hard trip to the front. Def should catch alot of horses tiring with the pace tho West Virginia might be a nice play after this is all said and done |

If he's running because Invasor is not, then the BC Classic should be out of the question. That race will be 5 x's as tough

I nominate Spanish Chestnut for the most mismanaged horse of all time award. He can share it with Going Wild.
Seriously, poor Spanish Chestnut. This could have been a really nice horse... |

im with you there Jess, poor Spanish Chestnut. This horse could of been a brillant 7f, 1m horse on either surface.

Well at least 1 thing
Spanish Chestnut and Dylan Thomas will be coupled so only have to remember 1 number not to WPS instead of 2 |

I can't blame him...with Invasor out now he could definately be second in the race...you'll need a private detective to find Dylan Thomas on the dirt in my opinion...he won't factor...
Sun King is the class and style to be second here behind the great one...why not? Second in a Grade 1, $750,000 is pretty darn good.... |
