although...really thinking about it...the winner looked awfully good. I think Wilko would have to have been fully cranked to get to him today....maybe this was a prep for something bigger down the road?

Maybe, but his last few sort of look the same at this point. And his race at Toga looked as if he might be off physically...he may well be retired soon.

Haha Kev. I doubt it. Too far to travel for me. I don't play that many....If there was a quick flight or something maybe, but I don't see it.

That was a grass race prep for a T2D start in the Big Cap.. Whenever you think he's got nothing, he hits the board at a nice price.

He was prepping for the Big Cap. They wanted a dirt mile but the race didn't fill so they wound up throwing him on the turf just to get a race in him.

thanks Snipe. Hope the race over the grass will get some bottom under him.
