Frammento (4) was 58/1 in the 2017 Fred Hooper at Gulfstream, but he fiinished fourth, beaten only 5 1/2 lengths by the winner. Bettors do not seem impressed. With about six or seven minutes to the 2018 Hooper, Frammento is 50/1 all over again. Can I see Frammento winning the Hooper? Not really. I think Tommy Macho (8) is the most likely winner. What I also see -- it looks pretty obvious on the page - is a hot Hooper pace percolating, which is just what a clunker type like Frammento needs to get up into the action in the final quarter-mile. There's a scenario in which Frammento, who likes one-turn miles as well as he likes anything, blows up the trifecta rather than the superfecta in this Hooper.
