I'm going to jinx your pick, but I like Sun King as well. He looks much better on paper than anyone in the race. Sloppy track in forecast could be a factor but I like Sun King with Flower Ally. I had Sun King in his two nose losses at 7-1 in the Met Mile and 6-1 in the Whitney. Hoping he breaks through but his price will be shorter.
In the Forego, gotta keep riding War Front. Second two back to BC Sprint champ Silver Train in Tom Fool and won Vanderbilt last out at 6 furlongs. Stretches back to 7 furlongs here and gets the 11 hole in 11-horse field. Tons of speed to his inside, so hopefully Santos can do like he did last time, sit off the speed until the turn and then go. Silver Wagon scares me since he's 3-4 at Saratoga. But he was 3rd last year in this race against much weaker. Trainer switch to Dutrow and gets Prado will obviously help.
