I would agree. He deserves to be favored and is a logical win candidiate. I wont be jumping aboard his train now, I'd rather rip my ticket up.
I like Dunkirk to win this race but will need every bit 7/2-4/1 to get really involved. Never been lucky in this race historically.

Could be a big 2 days for Pletcher. Hes got very logical horses in the 3 stakes on Friday and will have Munnings and I am sure a few others in Saturday's undercard.

I like Dunkirk too but I wish he had a bit more speed. . .

Me too, but every time I look at a big race and it appears "paceless" it never ends up being so. I dont think the pace is going to be "Smarty like" but I think a few will go with Charitable Man making it a moderate pace. Never been a big fan of Dunkirk but hes the only one in here that makes sense to me at the price he will probably be. Should be a good race.
