Whitney:
With the 8 scratched, the 4 is the early horse who is capable of going very fast. Then, the 3,5, and 7 come in a presser role. In a race like this where there is a lead horse capable of carrying his speed to the stretch call, my choice is a sustained horse. The sustained horses are the 1, 2, and 6. The 6 is too slow. The 2 is more of a sustained presser who was beaten by the 1 in the met mile (besides, I never forgave the 2 for beating Calif Chrome in the Belmont Stakes!).
The 1 is my choice to win the race.
