Again were do did you want her to go and didn't Jackson get Monmouth to boast the purse to attract as many as he could?.. Chuck Summer Bird is a nice colt, is has a bright future.. The derby winner could have run.. Drama could have run 1.25 is better the 750k especially for a gelding.
He ran her in a logical spot where she was an overwhelming favorite. That is not sporting, it is logical. Running her against this collection of boys is not exactly a stretch. Freddy, no one ran because of the extra 250k. While running her in the Preakness was not a slam dunk, this was.
