POTN would have to be the ML and post time favorite here right?

Looks like a good betting race already.

I thought Dutrow was pointing This One\'s for Phil for the Preakness prior to the Withers.

Iron,  

Mr.Fantasy ran pretty fast in his last but got a strange good trip when that Cali horse kinda bolted, several cronies felt This OneS For Phil was best, I\'m neutral.On the fence about Mr.F\'s ability to go this far under early pressure.As you know,they all look good alone on the front end, even going fast splits.

Interested to see what Hull got for his last after pairing two fast races.At least 4 confirmed speeds if they all go, tough race shape for any one dimensional speed type.Strangely,on paper, the race seems to set up for the running style of MTB who I will despise going in, on anything but a wet track.

I heard that as well.  He is nominated for the TC races, I believe.  Which is all the more amazing since Phil seemingly couldn\'t get the one-turn mile in the FOY.  What makes anyone think he can go another 3/16ths is beyond me.

Musket Man, the steadiest horse on dirt, behind a hot pace, a winner if they run.
