The Marathon is looking like it will be a positive with the movement and stretchout of the historical Brooklyn and re-emergence of several 'old-timey' route stakes.

Plus, there was the news of these three new 12f events just last week:

Greenwood Cup at Philadelphia Park on July 19;

Cougar II Handicap at Del Mar on July 30;

Turfway Fall Championship at Turfway Park on Sept. 6.

I imagine that one key element for the conditional stakes would be to running a number of them for 2 year olds and early in the sophomore season...
