Met Mile field?

He doesn't really need the lead, and just took advantage of the dearth of speed in the Westchester, but it was not a strong bunch ( save Sun King ) and Utopia worked out a VERY advantageous trip.

Last? I don't know but I wouldn't be shocked. Though, if Silent Name runs, he may be a strong contender for that spot.

You know, I just went back and read your posts throughout this thread concerning Utopia and I feel the same way.

I posted the last two before reviewing the entire thread.

I like him because I would like to see a Japanese horse do well over here, but it won't surprise me either to see another Godolphin Blue dirt runner finish up the track.

His form, although gaudy with Group wins, isn't overly impressive when considering our top older set over a flat mile.

If he wins, I'll be impressed. The odds on him won't be worth the type of field he will likely be competing against.

It is possible that he could repeat his Dubai effort here and still not win.
