Hey Bill..
Thanks for putting up the race... Some trainers, especially Pletcher are blessed with talented runners.. I haven't looked at this race in depth, but looking at the weight spread, it looks like the favorite will be at a disadvantage since he will be giving away ay least 8 lbs to most of the other entrants... Weights are not part of the methodology,but weights can stop a locomotive over a distance of ground... |

750 K race and not too much competition...what a shame...
Race favorite is so over rated and will be compromise by the weight spread, has to give away 8 lbs and 4 lbs to Departing who comes off the best last race prep. Departing closed off the slow pace set by Oxbow. I believe that this is the race the connections have been aiming for. I cannot make heads or tails of the rest of the field. Departing is my choice at 2 to 1 or higher.. Overanalyze is the horse that Thorograph gave a huge number from the Remsem against Normandy Invasion. A lot of people questioned the figure given by Jerry Brown in that particular race...they give a negative 2 for that race. Good skills.. |

At that's why I didn't bet. He was my #1 choice. Odds were to low.
