Look on the bright side, maybe we'll have full fields for handicap division races next year.

Let's see,

this year = A P Arrow, Barcola, Frost Giant, Mast Track, Notional, Student Council.

next year = Colonel John, Harlem Rocker, Macho Again, Mint Lane, etc.

Answer: Push, but like this year's Travers, at least they should be good betting races.
