That's not really what I was trying to say. But remembering last year's Timely Writer and the Animal Kingdom allowance last weekend, it seems that Gulfstream, one way or another, has an answer (or will come up with one) for any spot that Tampa can offer to a quality horse.
Certainly the proximity between the Tampa Bay BC and the Canadian Turf, both middle distance turf races for $150k, means that the two will be competing for the same bunch of horses.
