The Tin Man, Point Ashley aren't running in the BC, and I wouldn't use Gorella in the FM Turf - she's definitely going to the Mile (last I heard?).
Classic:
~Lava Man
~Bernadini
Turf:
~Scorpion (is he running?)
~English Channel
Distaff:
~Fleet Indian
~Balletto
Mile:
~Aussie Rules
~Gorella
Sprint:
~Henny Hughes
~Kelly's Landing
Filly & Mares:
~Wait a While
~Quija Board -b/c she is just an amazing mare... and her layoff is no longer than Invasor's-
Juvenile Filles:
~Dreaming of Anna
~Cash Included
Juvenile:
~Scat Daddy
~King of the Roxy
Trainers:
~Pletcher/O'Neil/Biancone?
Jockeys:
~Nakatani/Gomez/Velazquez/Dettori
-whew! that was hard! and it's all probably going to change by the time the contest opens (and of course I'll be playing for my mom or whatever, because of the age restriction), and the jockey/trainer selections especially hard. I barely choose four jockeys. XD

A horse is the projection of peoples' dreams about themselves - strong, powerful, beautiful - and it has the capability of giving us escape from our mundane existence.- Pam Brown

I'll be betting on Giacomo in the classic and Henny Hughes in the sprint. The price on Henny will be nothing, but I have to bet on him because he ROCKS! And Giacomo's biggest upset was at Churchill and I was there then too- it will be like the Derby all over again! I won't bet on Bernardini or Lava Man because their price will be a joke.
I'll have to look through the contenders a lot more to decide who I want in the BC contest thing- so that's why I haven't posted that yet.
GO HENNY!
