one interesting thing about that race. how many six horse fields has anyone ever seen that had 4 horses from it end up being stallions with stud fees in excess of 100k?

A weird trip is putting it mildly for Seeking the Gold. He should have won the race by open lengths. Who was his pinhead? Pat Day? Just guessing because he was a Phipps horse. And also Brian's Time who was not a 100K stallion was a damn nice horse in his own right. Wouldn't it be a treat to have a field like that assembled again, rather than a bunch of trainers dodging each other? This year's Travers is a joke. At least Carl N. sets out a course and sticks to it.
