Agreed. Giant Oak second off long layoff and a better trip should be VERY dangerous.

If Patena is the horse Dutrow and IEAH have been hyping up he should be tough as well.

IMO Free Country will run off the board here and Fresian Fire faces his toughest race yet.
I'll be playing exacta boxes with Giant Oak/Patena/Papa Clem

8/1? You've got to be kidding me.

Note the absence of Captain Cherokee. Not sure what's up with that. Perhaps he's pointing to the Rebel instead?

I'm assuming by 8/1 you were referring to Papa Clem. I thought he'd be 4-1 after I Want Revenge just flattered his last race. I wouldnt expect to see anywhere near that.

My guesstimates at PT:
Fresian Fire 2-1
Patena 3-1
Papa Clem 7-2
Giant Oak 5-1

Everyone else will be 8-1 or higher with the possible exception of Flying Pegasus.
