When you're trying to protect a flawless record ... the interesting spots are back home against Misremembered and Jeranimo at 10fs on synthetic in a pair of races you ducked last year.

They aren't in Chicago - against males - on a surface you haven't tried (but will probably love) - in a race that might feature true Grade 1 caliber males.

Baffert has said Misremembered is better on dirt, I beleive he is pointing for the Oaklawn Handicap, then the Stephen Foster... He did run in the Clark last year at Churchill and of course BC is there this year.

I assume Neko Bay will also move to dirt and run in the Oaklawn Park Handicap?

That would be the smart move... His top 2 career beyers came on dirt.

He won his debut on dirt at 21/1 with a 98 Beyer for Shirreffs several years ago.

The 98 debut Beyer probably puts him about 19th on the list of highest Beyers earned by a Shireffs runner in a debut race.

His top 2 are low-mid 100's.
