5 of the 7 are Grade 1 winners. The other two are Grade 2 winners. Gotta love when everyone shows up for a big race.

I like her also. But not in this spot. I think she has almost no chance vs this group.

Another one of my favorites, another who almost has no chance to win on Saturday. Clearly the entry is tough. Reload is finally what I thought he was going into the Travers. I think its the entry or Reload. I dont trust Sage Valley at all. This is far and away the best group he has ever faced, I dont think he is this good. |

Looking forward to see how Let Em Shine runs at Belmont.
Maldonado's chance to "Shrine".

In the Belmont Stakes, I feel the pace will be very fast (for the distance) and very contested.
Orb is my single exotic key in the race. His glaring weakness (lack of tactical speed and lack of general elite ability) was exposed in the Preakness, but to a much greater extreme than it should have been. Rosario made an early move into a sprinter who was waiting on him, Titletown Five's entry was a joke, but he is a VERY quick horse. Watch him chase Zee Bros in the Derby Trial if you think otherwise. I'm not pretending Orb ran a real good race in the Preakness, but it was just a race that doesn't have me thinking that he's tailed off form any. I respect Oxbow a lot, but he's in a terribly tough situation. Orb is my key. Considering all the factors, I can trust him and I believe he will run very well. Overanalyze, Palace Malice, and Revolutionary are the three I'm using with him. |

Who was the last graded stakes winner to have 30+ starts before turning 5? Optimizer is gonna get there easy. It's tough not to appreciate this horse.
