Pimlico Special

[Merlinsky]

I don't remember if they ran it last year, but if not, then expect to see it this year. We're talking about graded stakes status right? I thought they can't skip it more than once without losing it (or risking that status possibly?) if I remember correctly. It's almost as if they are halving the cost by doing it this way, and they get to keep a G1. Should it draw RA/Z they might bring it back sooner assuming it wasn't going to be up this year. Playing it by ear, etc.
