Default Clement Hirsch

Figure our boy The Tin Man is bound to throw a bad effort out there after the awesome comeback he's had, but hey, who's going to beat him in the Clement Hirsch? I don't see it.

Me neither Slot. I suspect somebody will try and send and try to make him win from just off the lead. But this very talented guy can win rating too.
Look for 2/5 at best, but who cares, its just a pleasure seeing him strut his stuff.

Have you guys seen that field? The Tin Man could run backwards with cement blocks hanging from his ankles and crush those.
Hes WAY better than those horses and I dunno who you see that will "send". Even if someone tried, the jock knows that the horse who does it will back up anyway and just sit off him.
YOu can put a circle around the Tin Man. Hes an easy winner at 1-5.

I hate to say this because I frequently hammer others who say the same, but that field isn't that talented for a GII race. The Tin Man is the obvious class.

Cement blocks from his ankles, LMAO , that is really funny. I hope he does well tommorrow as I think the whole place will be rooting for him.
