....I'd love to see him win it. He has a helluva job ahead of him. He drew the 20 hole so every other horse in the field will be to his blind side. Part of me hopes they scratch him just for that reason. #GoPatch

....I like:
1. Gunnevera
2. Classic Empire
3. Always Dreaming
It is a very hard race to handicap. Rain is in the forecast. No one has really thrived and excelled during the prep season. Best of luck, my friend. #GoPatch

He transitioned to the dirt very well. He's my pick. Along with Irap and Tapwrit. But you could also just throw darts at this filed.

....no reason why he can win it. He certainly looked good in Dubai. It really is wide open this year. Best of luck, chelsea0011.
