Ugh. This never goes well for the Yanks.

Have they lost their minds? That dirt course is garbage.

I kinda like the move... any horses going over for the Japan Cup Turf?

I'm sure Lava Man is available.

Good luck to them, but I'd rather see him given a rest or stay in this country for another start this year.

I agree with Slot's assessment.

I'm not sure about this one, I think a break is well deserved for him. He's taken on the toughest campaign of any horse this year and you want to make sure you have a good, fresh 4 yr old to race next year. Perhaps biting off more than is needed.

Totally agree. Lay off, come back at Gulfstream or FairGrounds. This makes no sense to me at all.

Interpretation.
