\u00a0 The even money favorite is Starlight Express The Sec<\/STRONG>.\u00a0 The Great One, J. Stivers, is aboard.\u00a0 The son of Trempolino<\/STRONG> has 13 wins, eight seconds and 10 thirds in 51 career tries.\u00a0 He is ranked 17th in the long distance division and has recorded seven straight speed figures over the century mark.\u00a0 Is no stranger to this distance as he has won four times and finished second and third once in his six attempts going 11 furlongs.\u00a0 Likes to stay back about 10 lengths before making his move and Stivers suits that style.\u00a0 Tough. \u00a0 Wyld Stallyon<\/SPAN><\/STRONG> is 2\/1 under D. Owens.\u00a0 Kingmambo<\/STRONG> horse is 28: 6-7-7 with most of his work being across the main dirt track.\u00a0 Raced only three times in 2004 and was sharp for the final two before 2005.\u00a0 Lightly raced this season, as this will be only his 7th attempt so far.\u00a0 Has been lucky enough to run in some rather slow races and has benefited from that company.\u00a0 Will face much tougher in “Starlight”<\/STRONG> and will need to bring his “A” game down the stretch. \u00a0 At 4\/1 are Red Butterfly<\/STRONG> and R. Truitt.\u00a0 The obscurely bred 4yo is by Guarani<\/STRONG>.\u00a0 Showed no interest in routing early on\u00a0in his career until he won a $50k claimer at 9.5 furlongs.\u00a0 His only major accomplishment was to upset a nine horse stakes field at 20\/1 going 9.5F\u00a0to close out 2004.\u00a0 2005 campaign had him chasing horses every time he tried to go beyond a mile and a sixteenth.\u00a0 Should probably try to get the lead against these proven long distance horses.\u00a0 Will need to set a snail’s pace to hold them off. \u00a0 Franchise<\/SPAN><\/STRONG> is 5\/1.\u00a0 R. Grider gets the call.\u00a0 Love the breeding for this 4yo.\u00a0 Bahri x Doyoun<\/STRONG> (IRE) x Fairy King<\/STRONG> (inbred to Never Bend) should get him a ton of distance.\u00a0 Would expect him to favor the weeds over the dirt, but he has been extremely versatile on both.\u00a0 Will undoubtedly go for the lead and try to out duel “Butterfly<\/STRONG>” for command early.\u00a0 With the exception of getting knocked around in his last four visits to Japan, this horse has been very consistent traveling 9.5-11 panels.\u00a0\u00a0I expect him to\u00a0wear “Butterfly<\/STRONG>” down and try and hold off the favorite late. \u00a0 Brocco’s Wild Cat<\/SPAN><\/STRONG> rounds out the field at 8\/1.\u00a0 B. Tatum is in the irons.\u00a0 Tactical Cat progeny has done most of his work across the lawn and has never won on the main dirt track (5:0-1-1).\u00a0 Has not seen the dirt in his last 17 races, but draws a short field to try and make his first dirt route a winning one.\u00a0 Pedigree suggests he can handle this distance.\u00a0 Pace should set up for his late run.\u00a0 Your call.<\/SPAN><\/P> <\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/P>
