Sir Greeley...no 2nd this weekend

The Ohio bred that won the Bay Shore went one-full second faster than the Carter winner, on the same card, last year.

Last year's Carter was such an eye-sore, that it wouldn't take much to be better than last years edition.

Smokey Stover is running in No Cal next, and retaining Gryder. With the $5 million purse for the Golden Shaeen in Dubai, that race is really bound to hurt the Carter....though last year, Cal Breds ran 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in it.

Perhaps something will emerge soon enough---perhaps something like a Bright One, who's flashed impressive raw talent before and is working very strongly for his return. I have a feeling the Carter and Met will probably both be sub-par as well.
