I realize there are a lot of idiots in this industry but surely SOMEONE has a horse that can take that easy $180k home. What's stopping them? I know if I had a filly/mare, I'd ship her out there for some of what St. Trinians got ( i.e, a long vacation).
I get your point, but I'm surprised no one wants an easy $60k for 2nd and the grade 1 placing. Heck Zito made Andromeda's Hero(among others) a millionaire doing it in the East.
