I played Asi Siempre and Sharp Lisa simply because they had won graded stakes on the grass and Soul Search because she had won over this stuff at Turfway. Worked out pretty well. The fractions were pathetic here (50.50 for the half, 1:16.20 for 6f). It was a typical grass race. Someone sound taps.

Blame the dirt horses for going way too slow and playing into the hands of the turf horses. This isn't the death of American racing. This is the rebirth. More Euro shippers is a good thing, not a bad one. I saw a pretty pathetic day of racing at Belmont on Saturday with short fields of chalky winners. If that is the state of American racing then I am all for the death of it.
