Arlington - Race 8

#1 Alnadana (4/1 ml)

Not sure what's going on here, because i've never seen an Aga Khan horse ship to the United States before, not even for the Breeders Cup (and he's had far better horses than this one). Top French rider Christophe Soumillon comes in to ride this one, and similar to the Murtagh situation above, note that he does NOT have a mount in either the Secretariat or the Million. This filly is the reason he's here. Very solid form on soft ground, and due to the Aga Khan very uncharcteristically sending a horse America, i can't imagine she isn't extremely well-meant in this spot. Incidentally, this filly is listed as the favorite overseas, as opposed to her being listed as the third-choice on the Arlington program.
