Judge Miller, blinkers on, is expected to set a fast pace in the Hollywood Gold Cup. Long shot Arrowthegreat should be in close attendance to the early tempo.

HRN picks for the Hollywood Gold Cup
Laurie Ross and Ashley Tamulonis went head-to-head handicapping the Hollywood Gold Cup and they saw the race differently from a pace perspective. As a result, they were unable to come up with a consensus winner, and even key contenders like Reincarnate and Judge Miller didn’t make both of their superfectas.
However, both Ross and Tamulonis are using long shot Mixto underneath.
The latest edition of J. Keeler Johnson’s Horses to Watch column highlights how Judge Miller may improve stretching out to 10 furlongs in the Hollywood Gold Cup.
Brian Zipse is looking ahead to the Belmont Stakes in his latest column. Find out if he thinks Peter Pan Stakes winner Antiquarian will move ahead in his probable next start.
