What kind of blog would I be if I ignored the Sun Stakes tonight at Mohegan Sun Pocono Downs? To me, they look like single-digit odds winners all the way through though I admit, I'm a little shaky with regards to the Beal. Memorial. While I pick Southwind Frank, if there is going to be a stakes race upset tonight, it may very well be this race here. My longshot play is Truemass Volo.
As for the Ben Franklin being the 'Race of the Centrury', I would hold off on that label until we see how the race goes. Yes this is probably the toughest field I have seen in a long time and while you can make an argument for quite a few of these FFAllers, an upset while less likely is not out of the realm of possibilities. If I had to pick upset possibilities, I would look at Mel Mara, who is making his second start back off a short vacation and also State Treasurer, who while winless this year tends to find ways to surprise and has the service of Tim Tetrick.
