Pletcher went ahead and got a rabbit for another stalker. It worked so well with Bandini and Flower Alley. All I know are English Channel, his new rabbit Icy Atlantic, and a couple of Euros in Frost Giant and Royal Highness. Anyone know much about the Euros?

Correct me if I am wrong...but EC has won a few races without a rabbit.

Yeah, which makes it more baffling why they would go get a rabbit. Seems it would benefit the Euros more than the stalking English Channel.

LOL the only thing that worked well with flower alley was the hype for this overrated animal, dont know why people fell into it especially after watching em all stagger down the lane @toga last year

I hope this isn't taboo to say, but what if Barbaro stayed on the turf? Would he be the favorite for a race like this? I bet he would. What an animal he is.

He would destroy this average field. I think the europeans will run 1,2,3,4 again this year. And some of them with be their group 2 winners.

English Channel should roll in here, unless one of the Europeans is something special. O'Brien's horse is a little interesting.

I'm going to take a shot on Frost Giant here. He really liked stretching out to ten furlongs, hopefully he likes 12 even more. English Channel is overrated and everyone is underrating the Euros.
