Race Analysis & Prediction
The Tremont Stakes is a premier early-season test for two-year-old colts, showcasing raw speed and potential future stars. This year’s field features several gate-to-wire debut winners, setting up a potential speed duel that could favor late-running contenders.
Mythical enters as the morning-line favorite, having crushed his maiden race at Gulfstream Park. His Into Mischief pedigree suggests elite sprinting ability, and with Irad Ortiz Jr. aboard, he’s a strong contender.
Romeo, trained by Brad Cox, has shown explosive early speed and could dictate the pace. If he gets a clean break, he’ll be tough to catch.
Blinging It Back is the wild card, having shown late acceleration in his debut. If the frontrunners tire, he could capitalize.

Longshot Play: Blinging It Back (3-1) – Late-running threat.
