Default Sleeping Giant ?

My word,Collected looks as good as a horse can recently.
Love the way he's finishing up his works.
He might be the one in the Pacific Classic:

Hes only 10-12 lengths worst then Arrogate. Assuming he bounces back. I feel like Collected should have shipped for the Whitney. The 9f seems better and at worst he was going to be 2nd.

That gap has closed up quite a bit. Arrogate will need to be in top form to beat Collected.

This is false. If Arrogate runs his last , sure Collected can beat him. If Arrogate finds his top form he crushes Collected.

Isn't that what I said. Arrogate needs his top form which we will see if he has. Collected has improved this year.

You said the gap has closed. I disagree. Arrogates Dubai/Gulfstream races crush Collected. Im giving him a total pass for his last, just because he's even running again.

We can agree to disagree. I think collected is better now and have to see arrogate show his past stuff.
