I agree. Using The Hat's marathon method the 2 and 5 have two of the fastest mile times at 133.8 with Real Solution, the DQ'd winner from last year posting 133.6 and 133.2 mile times from his last and 4th back. Closing running style could hurt due to lack of early speed. Hard to tell where the Euros settle in their races. I suspect that since the 2 and 3 have rarely finished in the 2nd half of their fields that they both press moderate to slow paces which I expect here.
