I'm delighted that Don chose Del Mar rather than the Big A. The adverse weather in the Northeast caused NYRA to cancel the final three races on Thursday's card, and today's turf races were all moved to the main track. I have a feeling that only the featured Red Smith will remain on the turf tomorrow, but there are three MTO's hoping that it might be taken off of the turf also. Red Knight is stuck on the AE list and will be a big price if he draws in..

On the other hand, the Del Mar card that we are playing tomorrow is very different from what we might encounter during the summer meet. I don't think that you would find any claiming races of $16,000 or lower in the summer, much less three of them on the same card. The average number of entries is also much smaller. But, as we have so often found, every race card from Ascot to Kamloops presents its own set of twists and surprises. Let's see what tomorrow will bring.
