Bring on all those 'SUPERIOR' EURO's to try that hard course with the sharp turns.

You mean like the way they swept the first three places in the 2003 F & M Turf at SA?

Wasn't following the event in 2003, so I have no idea what the fields were like, where the winners came from, or how the turf course was playing. If it continues as it is presently, late runs and wide trips won't work. But I appreciate the general comments.

think this could be moved to the sticky.. lady marian is scheduled i think, but i think she'll need soft ground to be seen at her best. I think most Nayefs need a bit of cut...

It's going to be odd watching real time racing at 10:10 AM.

Took me long enough to adjust to 10AM NFL kickoffs......though now I love them....
