Am I the only one that doesn’t like Vino Rosso at 7f? Doesn’t make sense to me.

Well I don’t like him a whole lot at any distance really, so I guess I’m with you?

Vino Rosso is unbeaten in races less than 8.5f furlongs. Routers in general excel in these extended sprints, probably due to superior stamina and the likelihood of a fast, contested pace. Note how Carter rival Honor Up has blossomed since cutting back shorter than a flat mile.

That said, World of Trouble lays over the field in terms of early speed. Only Skyler's Scramjet appears to have any hint of a chance getting close to him early.

That’s all true and I thought he looked good in his return. I just thought they’d keep him at a mile.

I’m not sure yet if I’m even going to bet anyone other than World of Trouble, but if I do, I like Honor Up and Identity Politics a little more than Vino Rosso.

In the Carter I'm using only 2,4. I'm not positive World of Trouble wants 7, and Skyler is fast early. 2,4 gets us through.

after all the Hidden Scroll hype, Tacitus ends up being Juddmonte/Mott's big Derby horse.
