Eclipse Awards aside, Princess is hot now so I would run. There is plenty of time for vacation from November - May and it is no guarantee that she will be better afterwards.

There is precedent for this- remember when Pico Central beat Speightstown in the Vosburgh? Pico skips the BC sprint and retires. Speightstown wins the BC Sprint, and wins the Eclipse award right?
