Funny Cide to the Woodward?

Man I hope he runs in the Woodward. Shows one more time that he isnt Grade I caliber. Tagg cant find a spot for Funny Cide because he cant find a Graded race in the summer where it is contested in cool temperatures, and the field isnt any good. I like Tagg, cant stand the Sackotoga boys and I am neutral on Funny Cide. But come on, run this horse is some allowance races and get him 3 wins or so and then move up the conditions.

I don't have a problem with him running in the Woodward, I really don't.

I don't either. He ran a very good race earlier this year in which he displayed that tenacity of his.

the sakatoga guys have a complete hard-on about winning a race @ saratoga...they won't give up. is FC even eligible for an allowance race?

I don't know what ALW conditions Funny Cide would be eliglble for these days.

Just give him a GI shot. He's ran pretty well in his last couple of starts after that miserable sprint performance this year. I bet he runs better than we all think.

I have a big problem running him in the Woodward. I have a wedding that day and wont be able to see any of the races. For him to win a grade 1 at Saratoga and me miss it would not be cool.

10,000 Funny Cide posters to be available on Woodward day....I'm thinking the champ has to run, right?

i think The Champ can take this field. Hope he runs and wins at the Spa. it would be one for the ages.

That would be one of the biggest upsets we've seen in a while, especially at a meet where every big race was seemingly won by a sheikh. I hope he wins, I surely do.
