weak field this year
I'll be the first one to admit it's not a stellar field this year, but in your opinion Steve, why is that. Is there a shortage of quality three yr. olds? IMO it's a decent facility close to the Interstate with easy acess, nice hotels, plenty of shopping and dinning, 5 mins. from the Airport not to mention 300,000.00 in graded stakes money. The calendar palcement dosen't seem to be that horrible in regards to the Bluegrass Stakes. I guess it could be the All Weather Surface, although with all the rain we've had this week and no sunshine to dry it out it would surely be less than a fast track today. I guess the drop in purse $ from 750,000.00 (Jim Beam/Gallery Furniture) to the current 300,000.00 (Lanes End) makes a dirrerence. Too bad Dee Tee Stables doesn't have an eligible runner to take a crack at 300 grand just there for the taking. BTW...You're right about KR...IDIOT !!!!
