Sightseeing's grandpa went that route(A.P. Indy) and won both races. I would like to see this guy in the Peter Pan.

I've always loved Shug & Phipp's horses...Sightseeing is NOT in the same class as SS or HS.
If SS wins the Preakness, he'll may face 5 or less in the Belmont & Sightseeing isn't the one who will "upset" the apple cart.

Hoffy I think he faces more, I don't know who, there is a month for that...
2004 Smarty Jones-9 Entries
2002 War Emblem-11 entries + 1 scratch

I said it elsewhere, nothing is free in this game and I don't think anyone is going to step aside and just give it to SS.

Like I have said before, the Phippses breed horses whose long-striding physique is better suited to the 9f and 12f tracks on the NY circuit than to 8f ovals elsewhere. Shug knows that, I'm sure.
