At any rate, I'm glad to see that he's on target for the Classic. Your comment on the GW effect is interesting, and may well be right.

Yeah, there are some bizzaro issues with the new rule they passed this year. It would have costed $750,000 to supplement him to the race but only $150,000 or $250,000 to nominate him as a horse of racing age under the new rule which makes me wonder why anyone would ever supplement. I guess maybe if you supplement it gets added to the purse for the race while a nomination of a horse of racing age just goes right to the Breeders' Cup funds. Sorry for the confusion, the articles were confusing me with the talk of $750,000 too.
