It is too bad that Comedero will pass on the Stephens in favor of a $400k sprint stakes at Charles Town.

It definitely is but since he's a gelding you can't blame them one but for going for the cash.

I'm looking forward to seeing him in the King's Bishop. He might be really good but it would be nice to see him against some sterner competition.

It is a great card. As it should be. We shouldn't be having discussions about bad fields for the traditional powerhouse circuit in the U.S.

I can even forgive the Woody Stephens field due to the 3 year old crop sucking so much a.ss this year.

The thing about the Woody Stephens is that it's not even a terrible betting race. There are huge knocks on the two favorites and the 3rd choice hasn't won a sprint race since August.

I thought Crisp had a tough trip in the Oaks. Outside post is tough in the Acorn.

Love the name of the Acorn starter Much Rejoicing. But she should be related to Brave Sir Robin somehow. (Monty Python and the Holy Grail, for you uneducated louts who don't know the source. Run away! Run away!)

Nice all stakes P4... The 2 short fields are also interesting.
