Fountain of Youth & Canadian Turf

Fountain Of Youth
(Horse; Pre-race System #)

Capt. Candyman Can- 11
Beethoven- 8.5
This Ones For Phil- 7.5
Quality Road- 7.2
Notonthesamepage- 6.6
Break Water Edison- 6.1
Theregoesjojo- 5.8
Taqarub- 5
Rocketing Returns- 5.3
Jack Spratt- 4.5
Bee Cee Cee- 3.1

Tons of speed up front. A lot of questions will be answered a minute and a half after they open the gates on Saturday.
Can speed-freak Notonthesamepage (6.6) carry? Doubtful.
Is This Ones For Phil (7.5) for real or did he freak on Millions day? Your guess is as good as mine.
Is Beethoven (8.5) better suited for one turn?
Is Capt. Candyman Can (11) for real? I think so, the Wilkes gelding has been very consistent since tearing up Saratoga in his debut.

Canadian Turf
(Horse; Pre-race System #)

Delightful Kiss- 12
Just As Well- 10.8
Buddy's Humor- 9.9
Twilight Meteor- 9.7
Buffalo Man- 8
Vanquisher- 7.2
Sporting Act- 7
Passager- 7
Bujagali- 6.8
Rogue Victory- 4.5
Hey Byrn- 3

Delightful Kiss (12) tries the turf...before Dubai? Interesting option for the Hal's Hope impressive winner. I'll take my chances with the ever-improving Just As Well (10.8) for turf wizard Sheppard. Buddy's Humor (9.9) could get loose on the lead if Jose Vezcano can guide him from the outside slot.

A lot of options in here, should get some nice prices, monitor the board.
