This is 100% Dr. Hansen and it's no different than Repole wanting to win races like the Wood and the other big NY circuit standards. Hell, Hansen -- who lives in No. KY on the river -- wanted to run in the Spiral this week. Maker accomodating and certainly can't mind having to only 'ship' from Churchill Training Center to KEE.

Hansen: 'Fan base' in KY. Chance to stay close to home. Opportunity to win G1 on synth in addition to dirt.

It's not worth it. Why engage someone who honestly thinks a horse would duck Gemologist?

It's that time of year. It just gets worse as it gets closer to the Derby.

Saw on twitter (via Byron King or Marty McGee?) that Maker told John Asher this morning that the Blue Grass isn't a definite yet...

How great is that?
