Tough race.

I'm looking hard at Lezcano's mount the 2 @ 12-1 morning line. Hoping he can get a swifter pace to close into than last time out.
I think the 8th is all 2 and 5. Just using those two in the pick 3.

The Proctor horse (#13) doesnt intrigue you? Horse could relish the slight cutback. Likes distance, has run well on track before.



Also, hard to believe Newsdad has yet to finish off the board at Gulfstream in 7 starts. Wow.

On the show TAP was extremely positive about him, its kind of hard to believe its just a quarter crack but who really knows. The horse is way too important to the connections for them to be 100% forthright. First major colt carrying the Dunkirk blood.

In this week's appearance, despite the setback, Pletcher was still upbeat about HAVANA. Made it sound like the quarter crack indeed popped up quickly, has been given the Ian McKinlay darning treatment and won't miss any serious training time.

Also from Pletcher visit, 2-for-2 ANCHOR DOWN (Tapit) who 96 Beyered Saturday in a 6f ALW win, will likely get a 9f audition and it appears that the Florida Derby is the spot. Palm Beach hero GALA AWARD (Bernardini) meanwhile, will predictably point for the Blue Grass..
