damn,
what happened to the "suggestive" pic of Balleto?
I miss all the good stuff.

anyway,

I dont get the downgraded status of the Clarke.
didnt it just get Grade 1 status?
had a really nice field, certainly Grade 1 quality.

The Goodwood?
have to be kidding.
5 horse fields and half of those are rabbits for the actual good horses.

no argument on the Matron.

suggestion though.
why does Churchill have their 2 feature races for older horses run at the same distance?
Foster and Clarke are the same race, just at different times.
CD needs to make one run at 10f.
and with their ideal setup for 8f races, they should create a top mile race at 8f.

as for the Ghostzapper stakes ateam,
it will happen.
but lets be honest, the Mineshaft stakes happened b/c he is one of the best horses to ever run at Fairgrounds, just like Risen Star.
both have graded stakes named after them there.

best chance for Ghostzapper to get a race named after him quickly would probably be at Monmouth.
just like there is the Point Given stakes there.
its not like they are going to rename the Woodward or Vosburgh after him.
