No way. Grade 1s are Grade 1s for a reason. Hope for good weather.

Is anyone a little worried that Rachel might not be going in the Beldame? They haven't confirmed that she is and a four furlong bullet today feels a little close to the race considering the way they've been babying here. Maybe I'm crazy.

Well I guess we know the answer to that. Did she get hurt during that workout?

I wish Kingie were still around. This just reminded me of something.

We had this conversation / debate / fight (in a nice way) many many times.

I called it The Colonial Colony fight.

I think he called it the "a G1 horse isn't the same as a G1 winner" debate.

Good times.
