Sounds to me like he can handle a minimal amount of adversity but if any more than that isn’t gifted enough to overcome it. May or may not be good enough but can be counted on to give you what he has so long as he doesn’t encounter trouble?

Assmussen’s filly will be the value I think in this contentious race.

I have no bloody clue! All I can gather is...better chance than Dan not as good as Fierce I do like this line: will there be enough “poop” in the scoop left to make up 5 strides in the throes of competitive stress?

Stronghold - my longshot Well trained horse is the first thing that comes to mind when I watch and study Stronghold. I think that his human coaches collectively have done a fine job, all things considered of not getting in this horse’s way. Tc, some assistance please. This is one of my contenders.

Glad to be back! It’s your old buddy Steve, aka Dirbud, Orioleboy and Oriolegirl through the years. Shoutout to Elk and Dell who helped me get back on. So glad to be back in time for the Oaks and Derby. I’ve been hot so hopefully it can continue. Some picks later on.
Steve

I will summarize this in plain speak. Not likely, rain helps. Thanks for the cliff notes.

Do you see an option other than City of Troy? Rosallion - if its firm. He scratches if soft.

For Dell - Mystik Dan
Copyright concerns.
Shortened excerpt... Mystik Dan is a very capable athlete, he brings to the table a whole bunch of “good” that are desirable characteristics for any racehorse, and he is 100% honest and forthright. He wears his heart on his sleeve, and he only asks that he be buffered where needed, guided when asked, and gently urged when required.

I will summarize this in plain speak. If he gets the lead and/or is forwardly placed early on he wins. If not, he may not win

Fierceness has an interesting psychological growth pattern where his Individual Herd Dynamic has matured at a significantly faster rate than his Group Herd Dynamic.
