Gutierrez shifting tack to Woodbine

[PatCummings]

Did anyone catch on to this nugget at the end of the Canadian press story, that Gutierrez is headed to Woodbine after the Belmont, win or lose?

This US-media is picking up on this story tomorrow.

He must be getting on a boat out of Wisconsin.

Smart move imo. The high purses, bad jock colony (again, imo) and his main charge taking a well deserved freshening.

I'm sure he'll be scurrying back n forth quite a bit this summer.

Not to Sure that is a well thought out move, He needs to look beyond this year, so Many uncertainties surrounding Woodbine Right now. Seems to me that some Trainers and Jocks are making back up Plans to get out of there if they lose all the slot Money. Right now I am not sure if any one know's exactly what is going to happen ???

Not a move I would advise if his goal is to ride on the worlds stages. Can make plenty of money and live in a truly GREAT city. However, Derby and Breeders Cup mounts come from NY, FLA, KY, and CA. Must be playing in those leagues to be relevant on those days.

Is it possible that he has work visa issues and therefore is not able to work/live in the U.S. on a permanent basis? I mean, his stock is as high as it's ever been (and likely ever will be), it seems like a strange time to pick up and move to the relative obscurity of Woodbine.
