holy crap. i thought it was a joke when i saw the thread.
just a few weeks ago, we were talking about how some of the horses this year seemed pretty good.
now we're going to have a field with not ONE grade one winner on dirt in the field. the race is shaping up to be a sad shadow of what we were looking towards not very long ago. now i really wish rachel alexandra had run here. the three best 3 yo's we've got, and none in the race.
but i can't help wondering just exactly what is going on-esp considering the trainer. something not going to clear post-race? did the owners end up paying the price because they didn't take heed from the gato go win fiasco?
