Student Council already lucked up and got his grade one win. If the SA track plays more like Hollywood than Del Mar, he'd go back to being a non-factor. Instead, he can go to Chicago and face a bunch of hens and roosters for the same price and be favored. Meanwhile, Lewis Michael doesn't have his grade one yet and I'm sure his connections saw Student Council whip the field in the Pacific Classic so they are taking a chance that the track could cancel some of the main contenders out like Del Mar did. If he takes to the track, he may never get an easier chance for a grade one on the "dirt" than he would here.
