Nice run from Havre de Grace but I want Flat Out going forward...

Ambitious spotting paid-off... but now what do you do? Don't you sorta have to keep going and head to the BC Classic?

Blind Luck would be a clear favorite in the Distaff if she goes in the Classic -- would like to see the BL-HDG rivalry continue (either with both in the Distaff or both in the Classic)

Had nothing to do with any trainer. This was a stupid placement in my opinion. It reminded me of what Zito used to keep doing with Commentator. Sidney's Candy has good speed for route racing but not for sprinting unless he gets a really light field that he totally outclasses. Like Commentator, he'll always be drowned in top class sprints. I thought he'd have had a much better chance in the Woodward.
