Frankel's bred to regress on dirt, both top and bottom of his pedigree.

His connections don't want him attempting 12 furlongs on grass either.

He's too big for the Breeders Cup Mile.


Pittsburg Phil was the most successful horse bettor in American history. After he died, they named a colt George Smith (his real name) -- Pittsburgh Phil had imported the dam of that colt from Britian. George Smith (the horse) won 17 of 31 lifetime starts including the 1916 Kentucky Derby.

Dogwood Stables bought a yearling for $250,000 and named it Arcaro. He broke his maiden for an 8K tag at Laurel in his 15th career start.
