When Tizway smashed the field last year, how many did he face? That was a pretty big field right? Although this field has a lot more class to it

It was a large field, but he was also coming off a 3rd place finish at Charles Town. This year's field, being so loaded with talent, was a tough sell for fringe players.

The real embarrassment are the a-holes who are running horses in the 60k Little Silver at Mth on Sunday instead of the Sands Point, which is an extremely weak 200k Grade II. As Chuck referenced earlier in this thread, there are limited opportunities to gain black type for 3YO fillies on turf this time of year, so it kind of makes you wonder.
