“At 30-1 on the morning line, you could do a lot worse than this guy,” stated Preakness Bets Expert Anthony Stabile of VegasInsider.com. “The race over the track is key and he should have plenty of pace to close into while not racing too far off of the pace. The third pick, I'll be using him in all of my exotic plays.”
“Broke maiden in his only ’07 start and scored in 3-year-old debut,” stated Horse Racing Expert Greg Melikov of http://www.horsingaround.info/. “After finishing third in Rushaway at Turfway Park, he captured Pimlico’s Federico Tesio at 1 1/8 miles on April 19. Colt possesses tactical speed and is close enough turning for home to hit the board. Like the odds.”
