MB & Wayne - Ok, guys, a before-the-event analysis this time. My top contenders in alphabetical order.
Charismatic - Beat most of these in last. Still discount having run for a tag (see John Henry & a few others). At 6-1 Morning Line, a borderline flat bet.
Menifee - All know he ran a fine race, but if he lags that far behind again might be a case of too little too late. At 5-2 ML,in exotics only.
Patience Game - The now wow colt. Satisfies similar criteria met by the charismatic one in that one's last, namely an improving contender at high odds (30-1 ML).
Worldly Manner - Appears to be typical short horse. Surprised and scared the heck out of me coming out of the last turn. Shorter distance a plus.
Ralph W. - Fortunate to win last. Odds of repeating ideal set of circumstances slim but not impossible. Has risked making himself look the fool. Good luck to all, Ralph

Like clockwork, AMD will slash its processor prices by 18 to 45
percent during the weekend, according to sources, to match
similar price cuts by Intel on its Celeron and Pentium III lines.

The only better news to start a weekend would be a pre-announcement...
