It sounds like Quality Road's next start will be the Met Mile but Pletcher will probably have to beat one of these horses in a BC Classic head-to-head matchup to get HOY. A dry track in Louisville in November is a risky proposition.

It will be interesting to see what BC ticket prices will be when they go on sale.
I wonder if they'll go for the Carter first if they point to the Met Mile. There's not much else in April anyways outside of the Oaklawn Handicap, and it opens up an avenue towards a sprint title (Forego, Cigar Mile later on) on top of an handicap horse Eclipse.
