Maybe "Bloodstock Journal" just got it wrong. I just checked and Premium Tap is still not nominated. Even more telling, Pre-Entries are due today at noon. It appears to me they would have had to have nominated Premium Tap by noon to not pay the extra $200K it will take to pre-enter him if he is not nominated.

We should know a lot more by this afternoon/evening about who is definitely bypassing the BC.
