Wanderin Boy is pointed to a race at the Meadowlands- The Pegasus.
If he runs well there then he will either go in the Cigar Mile or the BC Classic.
Since Sun King is running in the BC Classic, he probably will go to the Cigar Mile.

Tim you mean the Meadowlands Cup. The Pegasus is for three year olds.

The biggest disgrace was Laz Barrera and Craig Perret ganging up on Seattle Slew in the JCGC 1978. I think the rabbit was Life's Hope, but I am not certain. Perret even catcalled; it backfired when Affirmed's saddle slipped. In defeat, Seattle Slew shut up all his detractors. BERNARDINI LOVES A TARGET!!!!

Yes, sorry the Meadowlands Cup. I always get the 2 big races at the Meadowlands confused. Thanks for the clarification.

You know what else is coming up at the Meadowlands? That race on Halloween where all gray horses run. Its kind of neat to watch.

Watch for runners from NYRA tracks there. Pletcher, Zito, and McGaughey like it there.

Ah, the Grey Ghost!
Its a starter allowance race for greys who have started for a tag of I think 35K or less.
Quite amusing to watch.

The Meadowlands is a great kept secret in horse racing. I love the night races and its nice to see the big name trainers and horses like Wanderin Boy run there. They have great turf racing there as well.

Speaking of starter allowances I miss Coyote Lakes! Man was that horse ever good at running those marathon distances.

He was sold to Arab interests a few years back by Roddy.

Coyote was NOT sold. He's retired here in the USA. he was in NY but I heard a rumor that he may have returned to his breeder in AZ. I'll ask around.
Early Warning, who won the Gallant Fox was sold to Arabs for extended distance racing (2+miles) in Saudi Arabia.
