Tough race, but I would shy away from too low of odds on Tizway, which I am expecting, and will play a tough long shot in here who will surprise many here, as he is a different horse on this track, bombs away on the Duke!

This is a good solid field and several of these horses are capable of the win if they bring their A game. Flat out scored last time with an eye popping Beyer but at long odds..not sure he can back that up here. Bit surprised to see Tizway as top choice since he is just 1 for 8 at the distance. Friend or Foe and Rail Trip not getting much respect but they would be my two choices.

Its gonna be Tizway, wire to wire. The race is on for the minor placings; it will be a street fight between Friend Or Foe, Duke Of Mischief, Mission Impazible, Rodman, Flat Out and Rail Trip ...oh what a Headache to keep these also rans Apart ...can't even see Giant Oak on the Morning Line. Have fun folks.

This renewal of the Whitney is just another classic blockbuster at the Saratoga meet. Just by looking at the entries I would think this was the Breeders Cup Classic - minus the three year olds. With that being said, the horse that wins this race will, I believe, win the Classic at CD in November just like Blame last year. So come on Tizway!!

Very competitive race. I'm going with Rail Trip who I hope can sit off a fast pace and get first jump on the closers. I also give Headache a big chance .

They should call this the "AP Indy Progeny Stakes"; about half of these runners are grandsons of AP.

Sheesh, toss a coin in the air will ya?

I like Mission Impazible here, because he's consistent and Pletcher almost can't do anything wrong at Saratoga. I'll follow that one with Friend Or Foe and Apart. Though in reality, I can see all but about 2 of these horses having a legit shot to win this race.
