Will's Wildcat is 30-1 but he is 3 for 3 at CD, 3 for 3 with Borel. His 3 races won at CD were for a combined 14 lengths and his beyers at CD are 95, 98 and 97. Everywhere else he doesnt show anything like that. Tough field to beat but I will include in Pick 4, Pick 3

I would use him over the 2 horses mentioned earlier in this thread. The race is wide open.

I can't imagine he'll go this far - especially against this group. I thought Mister Marti Gras was a little bit interesting.

I"m looking at Mister Marti Gras. He closed like a rocket on a speed favoring track last time out.

The track wasn't speed favoring last time.

This is such a wide open race it's hard to really dismiss anyone with any confidence (except for Prayer For Relief, he sucks) and the horse does obviously love Churchill. But his only win two turns came against a terrible field and he hasn't really shown that two turns is what he wants. Seems like a tall order to me.

I'm using Headache and just hoping he runs a big one. Drosselmeyer lost a bunch of ground on the second turn, and Headache lost a ton of it on both turns, and was much closer to the pace than he should've been, and was still beaten only 7 lengths. Off the Trakus data, he covered about 5 lengths more than Drosselmeyer. A better ride, and some ground saving, could move him back to some of his better performances, one of which came here.

The track was even but the fractions were 25, 51, 115, 139. Tough to close into those fractions in any race let alone a stakes race. I misspoke by saying speed favoring.

Hopefully I will get all of 12-1 on him because he's not a high profile horse.

Going with Prayer for Relief for the win over Mission Impazible and Will's Wildcat. Might work a play to include Alma d'Oro and Stately Victor.
