Meanwhile, why would one need further evidence beyond Liam's Map's defection that the Mile waters down the Classic? Or does every horse in the Classic have to defect to the Mile to prove the point? Beholder, American Pharoah, Smooth Roller, etc. would also have a prime chance in the Mile.
A mile around 1 turn is a significant and cool race, at mile and 70 yards around 2 turns its foolish trophy grab.
