I don't think there is any chance that DM will run in the Classic. Even if he would have won yesterday, Ron thought that the BC Classic would be too much, too soon. He thought the BC Sprint would be a better spot because at least the horse would be fit enough for the distance.

Now that DM ran poorly and is sick, there is practically no chance that he will run in the Classic. He won't even run again until Oak Tree and he'll probably just run in a 6 1/2 or 7 furlong race. There won't be any time to get him ready to go 1 1/4 miles a month later.
