I think the write up is excellent, easy reading, comprehensive and understandable.
A couple of thoughts I couldn\'t get out of my head.
1) What is so magical about three. Why do we so often see three horse exacta boxes. In this race I like including a fourth to the tickets.
2) Which horses look to have the potential to crash the analysis. Considering Royal Albert Hall is borderline and Finnegan\'s Wake\'s last was weak, one or both can be considered beatable. Montego Bay @ 10/1 c/b one. The distance mitigates his late closing style for me
3) Why does Shirreffs want Blingo in this race? His big dirt #\'s back in 2014 are seductive. His last race improvement encourages. Trainers marginally profitable ROI Dirt to Turf and it is his best category. Yet not standout. I know the horse has no turf success.
Consequently I\'m adding a fourth horse to my exacta and trifecta boxes in case I need to exclaim Blingo! at the finish Any scratchs and I\'ll substitute MB.
Was thinking about that. Why is Blingo in this race? Then I thought, why not. Cali turf division is brutal.
Anything can win this race. A Grade 2??.....yikes!!!
Good Luck,
