Which is why your post is entirely valid...La Downs has already put up a big bonus. I just don't see how the Super Derby for a million bucks is not his best option, especially considering there is a great chance it will have a stronger field than the MassCap. Realistically, with the Brooklyn on the 22nd and the Jockey Club Gold Cup a week later, the Ky Cup Classic and the Hawthorne Gold Cup, what kind of field will the MassCap get?

P.S. I'm going to La Downs for the Super Derby, so I am biased in hoping Street Sense goes there.
