00:00Spirit of St. Louis is the next one we move to. He's a multiple grade one winner. And if you look

00:05at his last four races, he's won three of them. And two of them are probably on the list of like

00:11the five most prestigious turf races in the US. So he is winning like the absolute top level races.

00:18It's hard to knock him off of that recent form. Yeah, I mean, he beat Highway Robber and

00:25integration earlier in the year. He's another closer. But earlier in his career, we saw him

00:30sit a lot closer to the pace. He's usually no more than like four lengths or so off the lead. So

00:35I think he'll have a leg up on some of these other deeper closers we talked about in here.

00:40And, you know, he's I think he's a favorite, right? The morning line favorite five to two. But

00:44like he went off the favorite last time, but it was three to one or plus 300. So really tepid

00:49favorite. And I expect the same in here. So I think you can use them and still make good money.

00:52And I want to give Alexa credit because she pegged this horse at eight to one when he won

00:56the Pegasus World Cup turf a couple months back in January.
