Coolmore wants a Classic winner on their stallion books. It is really that simple. Remember George's dam is by Alysheba, the Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner. He has a shot, but you still have to like Bernardini. George is already down to 5-1 in the BC Classic pools.
They have Aussie Rules for the mile too. Aussie Rules run in the Shadwell was pretty impressive. TJ Comerford said Aussie Rules is running at his peak right now. It would not look great if their own horse beat GW in the Mile.
