and you're being vague-which dan is better on turf and which would go in the clark?
I think if hes OK you run Successful Dan in the Clark. Wise Dan ran huge races at 8f on the grass last year, and I believe his Saratoga turf win was at 9f. Point of Entry is a stayer, but they experimented going 9f and he passed that with a huge win over Animal Kingdom. Article on drf right now says Wise Dan is possible for the Woodford. That would be a dream come true for me. Back to Successful I know he has some issues, but it appears that he came out of yesterdays race OK.
