If it wasn't for Arrogate, he would have galloped in the Dubai World Cup. He has also clearly improved beginning with his late races in 2016.

Always copying me......

Like I SAID :rolleyes: he's an honest runner, just like PJ ....... BUT, until Gun Runner gets 10f, there be his detractors ;) which I am NOT one! Maybe he'll get it this year, one can only hope! :D

I dont even know what there is to run in if he doesnt run in the Haskell. I mean with CC in the Jim Dandy there isnt much else in terms of prestige and money to take the time to run in.

The race also could set up really well for him with American Anthem and Classic Empire in the race.

He could train up to the Allen Jerkens ( aka King's Bishop ).

I'll believe Classic Empire is in there when I see it.

Please, no. This is how we wind up with all these five horse stakes races.
