Here's my issue. Pletcher was one of the big supporters of moving the Jim Dandy back a week to give more time in between that race and the Travers. So NYRA does it. He runs Cowtown Cat, his 5th string maybe and runs his #1 in the Haskell. Okay, and now he is skipping the Travers because it doesn't fit. Please. I think if anything increase the purse of the Travers. Make it 1.5 million, because really, it's all about money.

Like I said earlier they might not be scared, but they are in no big hurry to face him.

l like the idea of raising the purse of either the Jim Dandy to $750,00 or The Travers to $1,500,000. If the Travers had that purse all of a sudden that 3 weeks wouldn't seem so short.
