Mowhoob looks nothing special on the evidence of his form to date though he's preferred to the others with experience. The betting may provide clues regarding a host of well-bred newcomers but Mahmood Al Zarooni won this in 2010 so a tentative vote goes to his 190,000 dollar purchase SNOWBOARDER. Salutation is a half-brother to Listed winner Totally Ours and Gabrial The Boss is related to three winners including the smart Fong's Thong while Gravitational's dam scored on the all-weather as a two-year-old. Yarroom can count Group 2 winner Saamidd among his relatives but breeding suggests Tobacco Road will be seen to better effect over longer trips.
