Agreed.

By accounts, she looks to be in fine form, is getting over the tapeta well and is eager to run.

I love Royal Delta but I really don't believe this is her surface or distance, and that she'll once again end end up a non factor.
Hard for me to look past Hunters Light who's been very sharp on synthetic.
From the American side I like Animal Kingdom the most.
