A very competitve race here.

The two late runners in this one are Monzante and Spring House.

The latter should have a head start on Monzante.

 

Somehow I get the feeling Lava Man will be in the thick of things early on

since he's drawn the rail and that might hurt his late kick in the lane.

Either What's the Script or Storm Military will be hoping to tuck into

the garden spot if the other pushes Lava Man early on.

I do believe this is a good "scouting race" for those SoCal horses

who have designs on the Arlington Million. Enjoy.

Time to get into racing

I'll try STORM MILITARY wtw with
SORING HOUSE closing, and a box of these two.

Whatsthescript looks to have come back much improved as a 4 year old. I like him here.
