probably only the top turf horses will go to the BC along with the cal and woodbine horses and some of the turfers will run on the fake stuff.Havent rachels conections expressed a disfavor about running her in th BC because of the DIRTLESS nature of the track?

Lucky for them that the 4th doesn't fall on a Wednesday.

The 3YOs based in Florida and New York were not so hot either.

Let's see Derby win & place horse:New Mexico & California
Preakness win & place horse: Arkansas & New Mexico
Belmont win & place horse: Arkansas & Florida

This might just start a trend.

I can see a fight for stalls in New Mexico and Arkansas next winter.

You could qualify that statement by saying that the winners of the Fla Derby and Wood Memorial ran in exactly 0 Triple Crown races. The 2-3 finishers in the Fla Derby and Wood Memorial were West Side Bernie, Just a Coincidence, Dunkirk, and Theregoesjojo. Dunkirk's 2nd place finish in the Belmont among that quartet's three combined Triple Crown starts is pretty good.

This Triple Crown series said little about the quality of racing in NY or Fla except that it sucked beyond the best horse in each of those locations.
