Time to analyze the 2021 Breeders' Cup Juvenile field, in post position order, in the form of Haiku; a Japanese poem of 17 syllables, in three lines of five, seven, and five.

#1 – Tripoli
Clearly loves Del Mar
Not facing West Coast patsies
This isn't his crowd
#2 – Express Train
His Del Mar triumph
Was a few stops ago now
Not sure he's got it
#3 – Hot Rod Charlie
Season of “almosts”
Culminates with a home game
Absolutely live
#4 – Essential Quality
The likely soph champ
Will the West Coast ship negate
His surplus of class?
#5 – Knicks Go
Fraction controller
Horse of the Year on the line
Should have no excuse
#6 – Art Collector
Lots of front-runners
Not all of them can endure
Seeing a step back
#7 – Stilleto Boy
Midwest to West Coast
Always brings his boxing gloves
Price play on bottom
#8 – Medina Spirit
Not the horse's fault
It'll be tough to feel good
If he wins the thing
#9 – Max Player
His ship's been righted
Just one start since July 4th
Might not be his race
Prediction
Which pace horse outlasts?
Knicks Go claims his spot on top
Eight and three follow
