Just looked at race 12 and I'll take North Star Boy - to place. They might not want to lose the condition so a place bet seems safer. On Ghurair. They're taking it kinda slow with this horse. And why even bother with an allowance race given his obvious talent?

If Chrome wins tonight I think he must run sub 2.27.00 to stamp himself a true champion triple crown horse. Especially as the track is running quick.

Nice one Nash!

I have no idea at this point what they were doing with Samraat. He should of been on or near the lead but ended up in last. He made an impressive rally but was not near the winner. Oddly run race.

I think he's a nice horse but not a champion. Will be interesting to see what they do with him now, I think the 3yo's will struggle taking on the older horses.

Interesting footnote. 1. Tonalist's dam sire is Pleasant Colony who finished third in the Belmont. 2. Commissioner's dam sire is Touch Gold who won the Belmont. 3. Wicked Strong's dam sire was Charismatic who finished third in the Belmont.

*Edit - For some reason I thought Wicked Strong finished third. Medal Count finished third. His dam sire was Unbridled's Song. A less interesting footnote now.

Ghurair won well too 9/5 not much of a price but a win is a win
