MTB for sure in your exotics. Of course I would love him to bring it all. You know, Calvin and all.

Gio Ponti, if Ramon takes him far back early and lets him make one big run.

How can you not love Mine That Bird off of his stellar last place finish in the Juvenile last year?

Mine that Bird's 99 beyer in the Goodwood wasn't that bad.

But saying that, even if he improves a touch, it will probably not be enough to win

And running style, obviously. I don't see how anybody can conclude MTB has no chance based mainly on the Juvie finish. He's a better horse now and seems to be tuning up well on the surface coming into the race. Calvin drawing the rail, is that a sign?
