I was thinking the same thing. It's just hard to think that an Empire Maker could not handle the dirt, real dirt that is.

Not only is her sire Empire Maker a Grade 1 winner on dirt - but her mother, the Washington state bred Rings A Chime is a Grade 1 winner on dirt as well - albeit her Grade 1 should have an asstric next to it - as it came in wire-to-wire fashion on Keeneland's old dirt track in the Ashland.
