I'd take Haynesfield out of that group...though I'd put it at about 3%.

Haynesfield by a mile. The other two have no hope.

Haynesfield isn't far behind the top 4, IMO. He's won 3 of 4 this year. In his lone loss he had busted through the gate before the start. Yes, he had an easy lead last time out, but he's won while stalking, too. His 104 BSF in the Suburban fits well with this field.
