I'm amped for JCGC day. Likely to be my last day at the track this year, and should be a great day of racing. Hope the weather cooperates.

One poor effort at Saratoga in the race Loose Leaf beat Temporary Saint.

Sounds like he prepped perfectly for the Brooklyn (or is that back to 1 1/2 miles to the sudden resurgence of stamina in the breed?).

Thanks.

Thanks.

They ran the Brooklyn, at 1 1/2 miles, on Belmont Day.

Oh.

I wonder how NYRA's going to fill that hole in the Fall stakes schedule now.

No race for older horses 8 days prior to the Jockey Club Gold Cup?

From DRF
Spirit One and Casino Drive are the latest foreigners headed to Santa Anita for America's richest prize, the $5 million Breeders' Cup Classic.

The NYRA racing office was sure Spirit One has going to the JCGC. I guess they were wrong

I might make it out there as well. Who's up for a bike ride from Brooklyn?
