I also find Vineyard Haven interesting. Frankel purchased this one privately for himself, and immediately sends him to the toughest spot he could find, not a typical Frankel move, which indicates to me he thinks he's got something...
It's funny you mention that because there was a whole chapter in Bet with the Best 2 (I think that was the one, maybe Expert Handicapping) about how Bobby Frankel is one to watch when he takes a horse and moves them wildly up in class. The horse they highlighted was Miss Coronado years ago in the Davona Dale at Gulfstream. I guess this is a somewhat similar circumstance for what it's worth.

Of course this being a Frankel animal he's 3-1 to win and 1-2 to scratch.
