I thought it was more but that would be an issue, surprised CD is doing that as no horse in the BC could race there.

Sadly I forgot it was a good friend's birthday today, but I can remember when the Clark is.

Recent history suggests that most horses are over the top after the Breeders' Cup and the preps to get them there. And the fact that the BC is a week later than usual makes the turnaround time to the Clark even less appealing.
