Pros – Meantime came in 2nd at the Peter Pan, his only graded race to date.

Cons – Limited experience.

Quick Thoughts – Meantime is expected to set the pace in this race. 

"He's trained up the race beautifully and we're up to the part where it's up to the racing gods," trainer Brian Lynch said with a laugh outside of his barn. "All the signs heading into the race have been very positive.

"We probably would have like to have drawn a little bit closer but it's a nice long run to the first turn so tactically, he should be able to get himself in a good position going into that first turn," Lynch said. "The post probably isn't as relevant as they are in sprints. If someone goes early, you can sit off and stalk it rather than be pressured, so maybe the 9 isn't the worst thing."
