Hey, for $1 million in the Va. Derby they may figure to take a shot...What the hell?...Nothing to really lose because this horse probably can't win on the dirt in most of the 3yo stakes on the East coast because the crop is so good....interesting, but the fact is that he'd be 20-1 in the Va. Derby if it turns up as contentious as the Colonial Turf Cup.....
Another intersting turfer is Steppenwolfer, who just worked 1:00 and change over the Belmont turf. I think this could be a good change for him -closers do well on turf and his sire, Aptitude, has sired some pretty talented turf horses. He may run in the Lexington coming up and I look forward to that. What do you think of this move, Joel?
