Default Discreet Cat Match Race?

Is this for real, Frankel is saying everyone is so scared of Discreet Cat that it wouldn't suprise him if his horse would be the only other entrant in the race, and for the 1st time since KONA GOLD if something unforeseen happen to Latent Heat it would be a $90,000 public workout.

Latent Heat, a son of Cherokee Run, could run next in the Grade 2, $150,000 Jerome Breeders’ Cup for three-year-olds at one mile on October 1st. Discreet Cat, who is undefeated and simply freakish, is also pointing to the Jerome.

“I’m not anxious to run against Discreet Cat, but I’ll nominate and see,” Frankel said. “If the Jerome is a two-horse race, I’ll run. Let’s make it interesting.”

It would be "no match" for Discreet Cat, he would smoke Latent Heat by 10 or more!

Hooves, Siren's Lure is not 3 so he couldn't face him in the Jerome.

NEVERMIND FRANKEL GOT SCARED TOOO

Discreet Cat appears to be scaring most of the top 3-year-old milers away from the Oct. 1 Jerome Handicap (gr. II). Bobby Frankel, trainer of the improving Latent Heat, said he's considering the about seven-furlong Perryville Stakes (gr. III) for the colt's next start. Frankel also is high on On Board Again, who came again to defeat Superfly by a neck in a mile allowance race run in 1:35 flat on Saturday.

I know...tell me about it. I'm sure he's a nice guy, and he did a wonderful job with GZ, but I will never forgive him for not telling the public just how sore Empire Maker was a few days before the Derby. He also did the exact same thing to us with Leroidesanimaux in the BC mile. I wouldn't have bet the horse if he would have told us (yes, I lost money on him).

With that being said, I'd be scared to run my horses against DC too. You'd be running for second. There is no telling just how talented that colt is. Why, he may even be scarier than that monster Bernardini!
