At the very least, you'd think he'd throw Game On Dude in there, who has been working regularly over at Santa Anita.

Furthermore, I'd imagine Twirling Candy will come out to await the restricted Oceanside at Del Mar on turf, reducing this to a 4-horse joke.

Of course, I think the last 15 runnings of the Swaps have had, at most, 5-horse fields.
I wish the graded stakes committee could cut half the stakes gradings and make it so there is some coherent structure to the race schedule and force a few more horses to run because there is less opportunities to win Grade 1 and Grade 2 events.
