Re: The GR I Whitney Stakes
Frosted... literally mowed them down last time and sprouted wings. Been working strongly again, hoping for another big win.
Effinex... would be happy to see this guy win too, but he seems to throw in a clunker after a win and he's due for a clunker. The talent is there (OBVIOUSLY) but he's so quirky, you never know what you will get.
Upstart... I've always been fond of this horse and I think he will pick up a piece.
Comfort... hoping he'll put some pressure on Noble Bird.

I'm hoping for a gray/roan exacta ... Just a wish, but I think el Kabeir is a neat horse and hope he finally puts it all together, even for only one time!
Frosted and Effinex (under Mike) look like the obvious favorites and will certainly be very hard to beat.

Re: The GR I Whitney Stakes
I love Frosted. I think he would have garnered more attention last year, had he not been in the shadow of AP. Looking forward to seeing him in the Breeders' Cup this fall!
