It depends how you look at it. He finished second in what was a horrendous race. The winner is laughably bad and the third horse is a $50K claimer at best.

Mach Glory may be a good horse, I have no idea whatsoever, but he wasn't truly flattered by Quip's second today.

Yeah I saw that he was 2nd but didn't watch a replay or anything.....

You don't sound too impressed. THAT's what i wondered about.

Mach Glory also drowned Quip when they met in South America.

I noticed that.

I keep hearing 2 of the 4 will go (to the UAE Derby), but have no idea who the other two are. Do you?

I don't know anything about these horses and nothing about Kiaran McKlaughlin's barn.

That was his only victory in 4 attempts on the main track. His two impressive performances came on the turf which - as I said earlier - seems to be the surface he is bred to run on.
Gold Trippi and Merchant Marine aren't bad at all for this level, and I think they will handle Mach Glory here.

This might be a situation where logic is dangerous.....though on paper I agree with you.

Maybe this one will be a bit more impressive.....
