Maybe that could be a spot for him?



I have no problem with that idea, especially with the Whitney at 1 1/8 earlier in the meet.
The problem with having two 10f races so close together obviously is how to fill them. A top horse is expected to prep for the 10f jcgc with the 10f woodward and then possibly ship across the country for the BC at 10f. How many top horses are you going to get to do that? How many horses are you going to get to do that period, good horse or not?


Didnt that Suburban tell us something?
