12th: 100th Wood Memorial (G2), 3yo, 9f (DD)

Wildly competitive group for the centennial running of the Wood and Dutrow appears to have a strong hand having guided Captain Cook straight for this after the Withers win. Pletcher/Repole down to their last Derby hopeful in Grande and he's quite eligible for laurels. Cox brings the least known undefeated horse in America to this in Passion Rules and note that his development pattern is very similar to that of Tappan Street's going into the Florida Derby score. Rodriguez gets out of the way of Journalism and Citizen Bull, but will have to turn back a number of pace pressers from the bell to annex this..
