![]() Thanks Steve. Interested to see a few of the 2YO races.
For your spot play, I like #8 Omaha Beach but feel the same way about #11 Flying Scotsman. Both are eligible to improve. Also interested to see how the #9 Power Player runs with the West-Baffert connection. Good luck to everyone today. |
