Off in under an hour, the 1$million International. (Woodbine race #6, 8:32pm, live on ATR)
The two UK entrants will surely also be the 1st and 2nd favs for this. Hillstar and Brown Panther.
USA morning line has Hillstar ( Ryan Moore riding) at 5/1, which is ridiculous. Will surely be nearer 2/1 at the Off. ?
The stall 7 draw shouldn't impede Hillstar too much as the plan will probably be to race in mid-pack and then pick up off the pace.
For me, probably a small E/W play on the Arlington winner The Pizza Man @ around 10/1. He disappointed in the subsequent Northern Dancer stakes when favourite, but he just might not have been right on the day.
Anyway, best of luck to the Brit pair.

I could see Stoute having a serious bash at the big International races over the next few weeks-Hillstar tonight and Dank & Telescope at the bleeders cup.
 
Well, he gets that International with Hillstar for starters. :)
Good ride by Moore -- as expected, held back in midfield and made his move two furlongs out. Perfectedly judged.

Pity Brown Panther had to be withdrawn on the way down.
