i disagree. she might not run in the jockey club gold cup either and if she does that will be the race i bet against her. just as others have posted the travers field is very deep this year. anyone that thinks she would have a "walk in the park" against that field at that distance is nuts. of course the woodward is easier, its shorter and God knows whats going to enter! QR would give her a good run early and hes never been the distance so the race with her in it had the potential fall apart late. with QR in there it still could, if he goes guns blazing early. shes a great horse no doubt. but i'm saying if and when she does lose, i'm willing to bet it will be at the classic distance. we will see if she shows up later to do it. i do feel hes taking the easier path at saratoga.
