Think Miracle Man has shot to repeat in this race and will be some value. Box with Vicarage and Santana Stings in an exacata.
Key on top of Tri\'s and Supers with Vicarage,Santana Strings, Ultimate and Don\'t Get Mad.
Horse has been Impressive in all 3 starts. Big jump up here but best opportunity to get value now.

I like Miracle Man also to run 1-2.His dad Yankee Victor was an excellent 1 turn miler(Met and Westchester)
Santana Strings is the horse to beat.If Lanerie is smart he\'ll find a way to get over to the rail and wait for Mike Smith to leave it wide open on Big Top Cat coming off the turn.
Don\'t Get Mad is a slow donkey and will get overbet based on past Churchill success.
Vicarage has a couple of good ones,but one was off a long layoff,and the other came stretching out in an easy trip second following High Limit around the track.I\'ll let him beat me as the ML favorite to get into the exacta.
anything can run 3rd or 4th
I do not think Miracle Man is fast enough to beat either Santana Strings or Vicarage. Not much value until 3rd place with Crimson Stag or Don\'t Get Mad
Crimson Stag is slow if you ask me. I think Miracle Man is ready for another improved effort. Don\'t know if you saw his last two races but they were both very good.
Santana Strings and Vicarage are the logical choices but with steady improvement, Miracle Man could win and certainly be part of the exacta with SS and or Vicarage.
Just My opinion.
