I just have a hard time seeing her appeal against a full field of 12 today.
With that being said, I don't have a clear cut alternative, but do like the 4 (Coup), the 12 (Try to catch her) and may even include the 7 (Candy Cat Can) as a value play on my pk 4.

Good luck!

I agree, Irish Exchange is not even on my ticket.

I am using Coup. I will add 3 - Lotta Heart to your list of possibilities. McPeek is not the greatest with firsters, but this one has been working rapidly enough in the am, sibs are all sprinters (3 wins in 6 fake stuff starts to boot) and Badge of Silver is above average with non dirt starters.

Look at the Oct 7 Work and where it was done.

Saw that.

Looks to me like she will fold as soon as she's looked in the eye and I am wagering on the fact that this will happen today.

If he beats me, so be it, but those two races she ran are not even close to what needs to be done to win a MSW at Keeneland and I won't stomach the short price she will be.

Several runners in here show good works over the Keenland surface. I need to see more than just one nice work.

With Tina in Vermont for a couple hours, and don't have pp's at hand. Thought it was an impossible group. More or less gravitated to some that had run.

That race confused me too. It made my p4 more than I was willing to invest. Settled on the 7-9 P3. That race 7 had a few prices that interested me, went:

2,3,4,7,9/3,4,6/2,3,8
