The race is 7f. You figure he’s gotta work up through 5-6f strong at least 10 days before the race. So that’s August 17th. That leaves him 24 days to work what I would assume would be a couple halves and probably a 6f before his final workout.
That’s a work every 6 days from today with no interruptions. Now if Pletcher isn’t trying to win, just stretch his colt out, all of that goes out the window. Anywhats, I’m not betting on him.
But all that is just monkey math anyways.

Seems like a very tight timeline.
Considering how much action he’ll likely take (if he even makes the race) he’ll have very little value. Could be a good race to get a nice price on one of the others, depending on how the field shakes out.

It looks like 4-Royal Delta will be trying to catch 5-It’s Tricky in the stretch. This should be an exciting race at the end.
You didn't get me down, Ray.
Should be a great race. Small field, but very competritive.
If It’s Tricky can build off that Acron win she’s going to be awfully tough in this spot.
