Look at that poll!!! 42% of the people there think So You Think is going to win the Classic.

They know this isn't at Santa Anita a few years ago right?

Seems pretty unreasonable of Churchill if you ask me.

Still, the Euro's can whine with the best of them.

I looked at some of the other polls and was surprised that Midday was edging out Sarafina 33% to 31 % to win the Turf.

- they also have California Flag on top of the Turf Sprint poll with 21% of the votes... and 42% support Big Drama in the sprint.

For what it's worth, the explanation I heard was that the G2 Commonwealth was scheduled to be run in lane 3 (22 ft) yesterday to preserve the hedge for Fri / Sat - which would have put the workouts directly on the race surface.

Dogs are out and open for training this am.

Why couldn't they have put dogs up even wider than lane 3 and let them work between the dogs and the outer rail?

less than a handful of horses, only 15 mins of rain. and like bigs said, move the dogs out more.

Maybe Announce needed a little spin yesterday.
