I don't seen any indication the best Euro f&m are considering coming over. Mandesha is going into the Arc, don't believe she would then go to the US. I think I heard that Peeping Fawn is done for the year. The BC f&m doesn't seem to be a front-burner issue for their connections.

It got quite cold rather fast recently and too many may have 'gone in their coats' (settled into a winter metabolism) to fly over to the milder US in late October. Time will tell.

PS. I don't see any horse outside of the group of Hard Spun, Street Sense, Curlin or Lawyer Ron winning the classic this year. Maybe Tiago could engineer an upset, but I doubt it. One of them could throw a clunker, or even two. But all four? Highly unlikely. These are highly consistent animals. Note I haven't included Any Given Saturday. I don't think he stays 10f in high-class company.
