I was kidding really. I don't see him getting 1 1/4 fwiw. Honestly I dont think people realize how screwed up this point system could get. The late preps are worth so much that If we have a bunch of different winners of preps we may be looking at horses like Shanghai Bobby needing to win a prep to get in. Say he breaks poorly or gets a bad trip and runs 4th in his comeback race like the Fountain of Youth or Gotham. He will have 25 points at that point and would likely need to hit the board in another of the big preps to get in. The runner up's in the BC juvy more or less got a few meaningless points which is going to further erode horsemans desire to run in these races.
