2nd timer Merlazza from Cox will take some beating here. Ornately (Asmussen) and New Beat (Norm Casse) are the firsters that merit looks and Kenneally appears sneaky with Saratoga first out returnee My Sweet Summer (Accelerate) SCR’D who is a half to famously overbet Derby runner (and 3x stake winner) My Boy Jack..

Sprinters always the most likely to run top effort fresh and there are 5 coming into this off breaks. Angaston has run just once since August ’21, but has been sitting on go since early January. Both Stalls (Pyron/Evan Sing) look eligible and All in Sync appears to have plenty of upside..

Increase of KY Derby points seems to be responsible for 14 turning up here and an intriguing group it is. Harlocap is the first Baffert trainee to be transferred and note the stiff 6f (1:11.4) drill he received prior to shipping. Has made steady progress in first 3 starts, should be prominent throughout under Johnny and may emulate Epicenter effort in this a year ago. Tapit’s Conquest price likely to be cut in half given his status as the mojo horse. Desormeaux always seems to make his presence felt in this series and Single Ruler gets cozy draw for a change and can juice the exotics, or more. Crupi is edging closer to a win with latest being a significant improvement that brings him here measuring fastest on some metrics including Thoro-Graph. Two Phil’s was my Lecomte play and want to give him another chance, though recent drill was noted as backwards (fast early, slow late) by top morning man McGoey. Don’t be afraid to take a swing here with many, many viable options and combos..
