If Hard Spun is going to get in the winner's circle come BC day(s) it will be on the 26th, going the mile and 70.(actually called the Dirt Mile). If they chose to run him in the Classic, I think he has the stuff to hit the board against the ultra weak older division. He's already proven that he can finish ahead of or at least right there with the "big boys" of his crop.

I believe it was Drugz who pointed it out that his running style would fit the Classic better than the races he's been running in. The Classic wouldnt have the likes of FFClass, Xchanger, Cable Boy, or any other horse that prevented him the early lead. He'd be the one that they'd all try to rope in. In my eyes, with his high cruising speed, only a few of them would be capable of doing such.

Then again, what do I know? I didnt think AGS would hit the board in the Haskell, and look at what he did. Exploded.
