I think Southern Africa will be up against it for 2 reasons. One, he is a dirt horse running against turf specialists. Two, it doesnt appear to be a ton of pace in here to set up a late run like what happened in his last race where he closed very nicely to be 2nd on the polycrap. Not buying the theory that because he did well on the polycrap means he will like the turf.
Look, hes not even that good of a horse on the dirt. He is the proverbial wise guy play for anybody who thinks the 2 faves are vulnerable.
I think Jimmy Hendrix wins this heat.
