Ashtyn Too is running a mdn 25 @ Tampa in the third race today.
He's a NY bred that set pace and faded going a mile on the turf at first asking - puts up a 40 bsf for the effort.
I don't know the trainer (she has 49 starts last year, this is her 6th start this year.) but it appears to be a family deal.
Point is, he's in for a 14K purse(with an ok shot at it), cutting back to 7/8th's and going to the dirt, when he would certainly fit on the inner in a state bred mdn35 for over double the money.
Allison Hassig would be a would be a good one to ask "Why run here?"
It doesn't seem to make much sense.
