right now my play will be
CS Silk over Persistently / Stardom Bound & Dream Express
and box all 4 in an exacta and dime Super

With Palacio de Amor there and being proven on this particular synthetic, I don't see CS Silk on the lead and if she is, it surely will be a contested one. You've got to respect any horse that McGaughey would send all the way out here and she didn't have the best of trips last time but she's always going to have traffic troubles unless she goes way wide. A lot for her to overcome here (second turn, new track, extra distance, better competition). I think she's up against it.
