I realize it's expensive to run. But thanks.
If it were no entry fee or something small like $10k you may see a few more guys take flyers.

The horses you mentioned will have a whole lot better chance at the mile paying 50k to enter to run for 2 mill than they would paying 125k to run for 5 mill with almost no chance to hit the board.

Any Given Saturday scratches and Diamond Stripes to the mile? That sounds about right.
