This is a very tough race. I think Dortmund will be hard to beat. I would really like to see Bolo succeed but it may be hard with so many proven dirt horses in the race.

I have to root for Pain and Misery to overcome his name.

This is the most interesting prep race so far.
I would love to see Ocho x3 win it, I've been waiting for this colt to run. Also excited to see Bolo on dirt.

I'm rooting for Pulmarack, another Cal Bred by Lucky Pulpit. 1/2 to multiple stakes horses including Tamerando, he's been improving with every start and I just have this feeling he's better than he's shown on paper. Interesting race, should be a fun one!

Well, I guess that solves it for me on Ocho Ocho Ocho. He was nowhere.
I thought Bolo ran well for his first on the dirt. Dortmund is a big winner, literally.
