Ladofmanor\u2019s colt \u201cMIDDLE NAME DANGER\u201d was named the moderate 5-1 favorite according to the track handicapper, but the fact that 7 of the 14 horses are morning odds listed between 5-1 and 9-1really highlights the fact of what a wide open, competitive event the Jean Brat is.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/FONT><\/P>

I\u2019m willing to throw out his last race, interestingly after 2 really good fast closing efforts, winning the Grade-3 Philanthropist and a very respectable 3rd<\/SUP> place finish in the Grade-2 Fainting Goat Nightmare. Katsurahama Beach pressed the pace in the Grade-3 Moussac and predictably slowly faded back to 7th<\/SUP> , beaten 6 lengths. On the surface it looks bad, but in retrospect, given the 19 week lay-off that preceded the Moussac, I\u2019m willing to concede the effort as a good workout (tightener) for today\u2019s targeted Grade-1 effort.<\/o:p><\/FONT><\/SPAN><\/P>

It\u2019s going to be awful difficult to leave this ultra-consistent colt off your exotic tickets. He really hasn\u2019t done anything wrong in his entire 9 race career, Bridge of Skulls moved up to challenge Graded Stakes company in his last race and even though he suffered his worst career defeat, he only lost by 3 \u00bd lengths and produced a nice 105 spd rating.

1 of 3 in the money in Grade-3 Stake efforts, a competitive 3rd<\/SUP> in his last race the Grade-3 Regal Hill, means he\u2019ll definitely have to take his game up at least 2 levels to manage \u00a0<\/SPAN>a similar outcome here.

This colt certainly has a versatile racing style, he can lead, he can press and stalk and he can even lay mid pack and close. Love Sick Drinker has won a Grade-3 as a mid pack closer, but that was on the dirt. He\u2019s 2 for 2 winning both of his turf events and his 107 and 103 spd ratings are his career best, so he may prove to be even \u00a0<\/SPAN>better on the turf, a definite X-factor horse.<\/o:p><\/FONT><\/SPAN><\/P>

Normally a horse that\u2019s won 5 of 9, including a nice Stakes victory in his last race, who\u2019s been in the money 8 of 9 lifetime, warrants an automatic inclusion in all my tickets. However based on his low S48-Rating, the amount of classy early speed in this field, and his lack of Stake experience, my gut feeling is Sugar Water Clue will be very hard pressed to accomplish a top 3 finish in this race. He\u2019s a really nice colt with some upside, but this field looks a bit beyond his abilities now.<\/o:p><\/FONT><\/SPAN><\/P>

Impressive Colt has faced better competition than most here and has held his own. One of 2 Grade-1 winners in this field, also has 3 in the money Graded Stake finishes in his resume\u2019. His best finishes were in sprints, but he\u2019s run decently in his 3 Grade-1 8 furlong turf tries, coming off a lifetime best 105 spd rating, where he was still running and gaining on the winner at the wire bodes well here.

Awarded favorite\u2019s role based on his last 3 outstanding races, where he missed bagging all 3 wins by a scant \u00bc length in the Irish 2000 guineas. His 3 speed ratings of 110, 107 & 106 are dynamic and better than any 3 combined efforts of his competitors, so a repeat of those numbers without a doubt puts him in the top-3 mix at the wire here. About the only thing that worries me is the fact this is his 5th<\/SUP> race with 3 week spacing and all these top efforts have to take a toll at some point, so a bounce is a possibility. High S48 Rating, the one to beat.<\/o:p><\/FONT><\/SPAN><\/P>

Samuel has really taken his game to a whole new level as a 3-year old, winner of 4 of his last 5, his last being the best, notching his 1st<\/SUP> Grade-1 Stake win earning a personal best 108 speed rating and beating several of his key rivals in that event. He has a really nice blend of tactical early speed that he uses to his best advantage. If your too slow, he can zip by you early and never look back, but if your blazing fast he can lay off and stalk a length or 2 back and wait until you tire and inherit the lead and never look back. He\u2019s also not a faint hearted sprinter as he showed wiring the field at 9 furlongs in the Hawk\u2019s Heir Stake in week 5002. His races have been nicely spaced 4-6 weeks apart so burnout shouldn\u2019t be an issue.<\/o:p><\/FONT><\/SPAN><\/P>

Stuck outside with very little early speed, it\u2019s hard to vision Galico doing much more than passing the tired runners late. He\u2019s tried Grade-1 competition his last 2 starts and was never prominent in either race, but he wasn\u2019t a total embarrassment either, both were rather flat tries where he kind of raced evenly. He did have a near miss in week 4820 as a 2-year old in the Bedford Stakes, where he cruised along near the back of the pack and \u201cflew\u201d in the stretch to grab 2nd<\/SUP> and just missed winning by a head.
