You have Switch going to dirt from SA.

You have that Devil May Care filly, who won a g1 race in NY at 2 but I think bombed in her 3yo comeback.

Amen Hallelujah, coming off nice wins at both SA and GP.

And then you have the hot hyped horse, Christine Daae. That race is going to be hard to figure out.
For me, its the easiest race. DMC is really good, toss her last 2. She did not handle the synthetics and she had a trip and got all worked up before her comeback. She runs back to her 2 yr old form she will prove to be tough, and then theres CD I want her a lot more then I want Amen coming off that huge top.

Switch is a huge unknown though. She could beat these.

Saddler bringing her did jump out, I will wait for the pps to comment on her.
Knowing the pp's of the 2 I like and even Amen she will really have to run, this is a nice group.

That's my point dude!

Well, not so much that this is a great field, but more that there appears to be a number of entries with ability and many of those have serious question marks.

Desormeau says he loves Miner's Reserves's post and he's the fastest horse in the race. Does that mean he thinks MR is the fastest overall or that he's the speed of the speed?

What it means is that you should never listen to what any jockey thinks, especially that one.

Meaning he's wrong about the post and about Miner's Reserve being the fastest horse? Well, he's obviously high on him as he convinced Zito and LaPenta to deviate from their set plan re: pointing for the Preakness.

It means he's full of sh!t...as always.

This is the same guy that guaranteed Imperialism would win the Preakness and Belmont.

If Miner's Reserve wins it will "be the best horse he's ever ridden."
