This is a 'seminal' race of sorts. We have an acknowledged 'very good' dirt horse meeting good turf sprinters on their surface. A horse that ran with Commentator early last out in insane fractions facing a bunch on NY breds and a mare. I'm very interested in seeing how FD runs, as I'm not convinced, as many are, that turf sprinters are no talent bums. Unfortunately, the field is not of the caliber, relatively, that FD is, and the course is off. He's supposed to be beat this field but I don't know if that will reveal much, if anything.

I hope, that we see more of these types of races in the future, between the better quality horses of each surface. As noted previously, I wish English Colony were in the race.
