There was no planning to put him in this spot, no trainer plans ahead like that. Its really a bush league move, thats why I say it has to be the owners making the decision. You are correct, he would have been better suited to prep up to this race and get all the money.

I hope he runs well, that being said I will be surprised if he shows up at all.
How do you know there was no planning? The Empire Classic is the goal and this race sets him up perfectly for it. Didn't a horse from the Woodward win the stake yesterday at Belmont?
