I believe that if Pletcher was to enter his filly Honey Ryder in that Grade 1 race, she would be the post time favorite. That's how soft a group it is for the Grade 1 level.

Heck, the ultra moderate Ramazutti will be a factor in there. Dreadnaught was not nominated for the race. Einstein is the defending champion, but he was off the board in an alw race at a mile, and is hardly a bigtime horse to fear

That's surprising. He runs second wherever he goes and they won't find an easier G1 for the rest of his career.

This allowance field is the pitts. Mending Fences, Request for Parole, MB Sea. These are real plodders. Soft as a cotton ball.

I think Dreadnaught and Ramazutti are pretty good horses, better than anything in here.

I was thinking the same--perhaps he's not right
