Interesting that u say that. If that were true, I think Discreet Cat would be in the Classic. But they clearly said he would only run if something unforseen happened to Bernardini. They said the only race he was likely for was the Sprint but that was before Henny Hughes passed his big test so now he won't be there. And then there is this piece of news that I read today:

The presence of Henny Hughes in the Sprint will most likely keep the top filly contender Dubai Escapade out of the lineup, according to her trainer, Eoin Harty. Harty said Dubai Escapade remains under consideration for both the Sprint and Distaff, although she could also start in Aqueduct's First Flight Handicap on Oct. 28.

"Right now we're training her like she still might run in the Breeders' Cup, although I don't think she'll go a mile and one-eighth and I don't think she can beat Henny Hughes," said Harty. "She's also owned by the same team who have Henny Hughes, so unless something were to happen to him, it's probably doubtful she'll run in the Sprint."

The clearly aren't running their top horses against each other. Doesn't matter which family member name the horse technically runs under. It's all the same family.
