Honestly I see Perfect Forest tough to beat even though she isn't that much of a spectacular filly.

I don't know if I would call her THE horse to beat but she's certainly one of them. It's actually kind of an interesting race.

I guess Perfect Forest will be the favorite but it should be close. It's not an easy race to get a read on.

That is why I started this thread...Pletcher irks me, just when you think you might be able to beat him you can't. I'm awful at finding his weak favorites, unless you have Gomez on one of his other starters at a price. LOL

He's a terrific trainer, with great help, a great program, and a barnful of WAY better than average horses. He rules all divisions. But, he's overbet, so if you are selective you do fine playing against him. He is not a trainer with a positive ROI. His horses pay slightly better than $2 less the takeout.

I always try, but to no avail. I "seem" to find a spot in which he is vulnerable.(large fields, bad posts) Works out rarely in my favor. His horses seem to find another gear coming down the backstretch, as the others hit plywood. Is this due more to the quality of his stock or his tinkering with them??
