Why is a horse like Modernist, a well-bred major winner in seemingly good form based on a strong workout at Belmont still on the fence for this race?
Is the owner holding out for an appearance fee or something? |

Was a strange quote from Mott.. "Thinking Ohio Derby but he worked so well.."

Quote:
Not that I advocate or worry about these things, but if Modernist's connections are interested in solidifying the horse's stallion resume (and they ought to with his deep bloodlines) they wouldn't have to worry ever again if he could spring the upset on Saturday. As far as I know, breeders, consignors, bloodstock agents, and buyers don't put an asterisks on black type from western Canada, Puerto Rico, or the Midwest so I doubt there will be one for the 2020 Belmont Stakes... |

It makes little sense. I’m confused why a $1 million 9 furlong race has only drawn 8 entries.
