The 2 is more of a sustained presser who was beaten by the 1 in the met mile (besides, I never forgave the 2 for beating Calif Chrome in the Belmont Stakes!).
The 1 is my choice to win the race.

Tim laid it out beautifully after the 8 was scratched. I'm not sure if I would have done anything differently or not with the scratch. Gandalf called the sustained run. Raceman keeps pulling it off with his singular focus on recent tandems.
He must be doing more than that? Can't be that simple? Keeps putting them up though.
Congrats on the nice price gentlemen.
