A bit surprised at the short field but will be rooting for Tannersville again in the Bonnie Heath

The turf course looks absolutely torched on TV. To call it chewed up is an understatement. CRC has 3 races scheduled for the Turf on Thurs and Fri before Florida Million Day on Saturday (4 races scheduled for the turf, including a couple of stakes). I don't know how much the course can take. The next month and a half there's some nice turf stakes races and I'm interested to see how the turf course will hold up.

I just saw Race 7 on Thurs and the turf actually looked a little better on TV today.
