I particularly like the way they say they're going to point for races like the Travers instead of the Belmont...as if asking a horse to run in both would be insane. Never mind that a whole lot of Travers winners in recent years (Lemon Drop Kid, Point Given, Medaglia Doro, Ten Most Wanted, Birdstone, Summer Bird, etc) were all Belmont Stakes participants.

Coming in off that Peter Pan performance, the Belmont would seem to come at a perfect time for him. It makes no sense to me whatsoever.
