Solid field of slugs.. I am tempted to give the Sheppard/Romp a shot..Who is fav in this slug fest Expansion, Al Khali? This is one horrible group. I imagine any decent listed Euro nevermind a Group 3 would crush these.

It isn't the Million, that's for sure but I look at it as a solid betting race.

I look for a very big effort from Bearpath. While he is certainly a cut below on paper, he is an improving sort with a big rider switch. Plus he will absolutely stay the route and probably have 1st run as they straighten.

Solid betting race and solid group are 2 totally different things. This race is HORRIBLE, but it might be a good betting race.
