I sometimes wonder how long Frankel would have been employed by Juddmonte if he did as poorly with their stock as Shug does with Phipps stock.

Still pending on Quality Road and now the weather is being brought into it. Supposed to have a lot of rain on Friday and they dont want to run him again on a muddy track...

Looking again like a very compact field, a la the Vosburgh.

Kodiak Kowboy going for his Eclipse Award. He wins and he is a lock for sprinter of year.
Driven by Success trying to win his first Grade 1.
Vineyard Haven, Pyro and Bribon all trying to close out wonderful years in their own right with another Grade one win. Not a good betting race by any stretch of teh imagination but a great race to watch and root!

from drf:


The defection of Quality Road and Munnings, who will miss the race because of a foot injury, leaves the Cigar Mile with a likely five-horse field with only four betting interests. Vineyard Haven and Pyro, both owned by Sheikh Mohammed's Godolphin Stable, will be a coupled entry. Grade 1 winners Bribon and Kodiak Kowboy will also run as will the speedy New York-bred Driven by Success.

How can Kodiak Kowboy win an Eclipse when he didn't run on the "Championship" day in the "Not Quite Turf Sprint"?

While you may be correct in him getting the eclipse it is absolutely wrong to let this race be counted as a sprint. It's not the Cigar Sprint.
