(ML odds) GIC fair market odds + Barry Spears odds
Americanrevolution (30-1) ran well in the JCGC, will he even point to the Classic? (GIC 45-1) [BS 35-1] Current price 39-1
Art Collector (30-1) crushed Charlestown Classic but BC Classic is different breed of cat (GIC 55-1) [BS 60-1] Current Price 71-1
Charge It (20-1) foot issues are lingering, he will miss the PA Derby and it’s looking doubtful that he will even make the race at this point (GIC 100-1) [BS 50-1] Current price 48-1
Country Grammer (12-1) trounced By Flightline, not sure he is eager to tackle him again? (GIC 25-1) [BS 20-1] Current price 30-1
Cyberknife (30-1) ran well in the Travers when 2nd but left in Epicenter’s wake. Cox has referred to possibly running in the Dirt Mile (GIC 28-1) [BS 30-1] Current price 38-1
Dynamic One (50-1) showed little in JC Gold Cup. Longshot to even enter (90-1) [BS 90-1] Current price 99-1
Early Voting (50-1) was terrible in the Travers after not impressing in Jim Dandy. (GIC 200-1) [BS 65-1] Current odds 75-1
Emblem Road (50-1) still have doubts he even winds up in starting gate on Nov 6th (GIC 75-1) [BS 100-1] Current odds 99-1
Epicenter (7-2) dominated Travers in huge performance. Versatile colt is still getting better. Can handle the 10f (GIC 6-1) [BS 4-1] Current odds 6-1
Express Train (50-1) not in same area code as Flightline, also not confident he ships east to face him again. (GIC 90-1) [BS 90-1] Current odds 99-1
First Captain (50-1) rallied to be third in JCGC though never really threatened (75-1) [BS 90-1] Current odds 99-1
Flightline (5-2) Demolished the Pacific Classic, if he is in the starting gate he will be 3/5 or lower (GIC even) [BS 6-5] Current odds 1-2
Happy Saver (30-1) pointing to Woodward supposedly as his BCC prep (GIC 35-11) [BS 90-1] Current odds 93-1
Hot Rod Charlie (20-1) Whitney was just ok, will need to a lot better to beat the best in the Classic. Rumblings about perhaps rerouted to Dirt Mile as well (GIC 32-1) [BS 25-1] Current odds 37-1
Keepmeinmind (50-1) Didn’t make much of an impact in the JCGC, questionable if he proceeds, has little chance if he does (GIC 95-1) [BS 99-1] Custom Price 99-1
Life is Good (4-1) Irad swerving controversy took away from a big win over a track that may have been deeper than he prefers, showdown with Flightline looms (GIC 5-1) [BS 4-1] Current price 10-1
Mandaloun (50-1) hasn’t been sharp since very early in the year (GIC 80-1) [BS 99-1] Current Price 99-1
Mishriff (Ire) (30-1) will he actually ship for this race? (GIC 60-1) Current Price 99-1

Rich Strike (30-1) lots of gleeful praise for a 4th place finish in the Travers doesn’t bode well for winning a race like the Classic. Reed has mentioned the Clark as an alternative (GIC 90-1) [BS 80-1] Current price 60-1
Royal Ship (Brz) (50-1) Pacific Classic results. Finished 3rd. Got beat 26 by the winner. (GIC 72-1) [BS 75-1] Current Price 99-1
Taiba (30-1) Will likely be favored in the Pa Derby, still improving, might be best of potential long shots (GIC 22-1) [BS 40-1] Current price 37-1
Zandon (30-1) serious questions as to his ability to handle the 10 furlong distance. Might not be pointed to Classic (GIC 80-1) [BS 50-1] Current price 67-1
All others (50-1) Happy Jack is included! (GIC 40-1) [BS 35-1] current price 35-1
