But The Whitney was a good field.

I would think a trainer would point his horse to the classic with a purse of 5 million....the whitney this year was a great finish but left a lot of questions with how will flower alley come back his next race and is Wanderin Boy an 8-9 furlong horse or can he get the classic distance?
