That Tapit is beautiful. I can never resist a pretty grey horse.
To: prisoner6
but I'm still with Smarty. Me too, but I don't like these extra-large (20-horse) fields.
To: prisoner6
But I'm also partial to Pollard's Vision. Just hope one of them win!

OK, I'm going to say:
Lionheart
Smarty Jones
And the third is... too hard to decide.
Either Imperialism or Tapit... I'll try to choose before they leave the gates. lol
