GP successfully lures Uncle Mo to Timely Writer

NE 213th St. precludes them from having a chute longer than a mile. When Stronach re-designed GP he initially planned on the chute only going back to 7.5 furlongs. Wouldn't that have been terrific?

You and I both know that not being able to run anything between 7.5 and 9fs when you're a winter-time track with tons of 3YOs would be very problematic. Bad enough they can't go 1 1/16th now.

That kept them in Broward county. The end of the chute is actually in Dade county. There were a few political issues to be settled before they could go to the full mile.

Not that Timely Writer isn't worthy of a race in his name but it isn't there another name they could have used?

The race was Timely Written just for these two horses, hence the name.
