What I am still asking of anyone is what they have to lose by trying it? I think several questions should be asked.

1-What would be gained by winning the Mile?
2-What would be lost by losing the Mile?
3-What would be gained by winning the Classic?
4-What would be lost by losing the Classic?

IMO, the answers are:
1-nothing
2-stature
3-stature (and it wouldn't even take a win)
4-nothing

So winning the BC mile means nothing? GW has done SO much that winning the BC mile is no big deal? The truth is that he probably cant win either race based upon his form this year and the dirt is a built in excuse.
