I heard that they were specifically not going to Saratoga yesterday before the race, but it's entirely possible that they'll change their mind. There's got to be an easier spot w/ comparable or more money, though.

I suppose they could stretch him out but I hoped A Little Warm would be the only 3YO sprinter foolishly stretched out this summer.

I hope they send him to Saratoga. I think he'd absolutely throttle the best 3YO sprinters out there right now, especially D'Funnybone. Now, if only D. Wayne saw the light with Dublin or if Afleet Express is shortened back up, then it becomes a different issue.

In that race that Ness won, did anyone notice the ride that his horse was given? It was a very clever piece of race riding or at least it appeared to be on first watch. The jockey seemed to wait on the favorite and then kept him boxed in around the turn allowing his mount to get the decisive first run.

Great ride from what i saw.

I believe he is coming for the Amsterdam and King's Bishop.
