Default Dutrow v. Commentator

http://www.drf.com/news/article/99695.html

I love Zito's quote:

"Maybe he didn't look at the Mass Cap the other day," Zito said. "They had a nice rabbit in there against us, and we handled it pretty well. He's bringing some rabbits just for me? I appreciate it. Tell Babe I really appreciate it. That's nice of him."

I'm not sure why the Cigar Mile is not in the plans. It's a NY G1, seems right up Nick's alley. Andy? Any ideas?

You can't blame Dutrow for doing what he thinks is the best way to beat Zito.

No your right, but I think he is vile and anyone that come back at him like that, goes up higher on my "cool person" meter!

Where is our resident Zito hater on this one? Oh wait, nevermind, I think he was banned.

The 'villain' here is not Dutrow but DIRT. If I were Dutrow and I knew that a horse like Commentator would have an UNFAIR advantage, I test him early and make him earn the win. In fact, if I were training, I'd test all the need-the-lead-and-have-the-track-carry-them types early and see if they had guts or wilted under pressure. Time to start using races as WORKOUTS.

The problem is the generally accepted notion that DIRT plays fair. We love our front runners here.
