I might be wrong, but I think other than accomplishing something unusual, NoBiz has already kind of established his market value. A win in either race you are discussing isn't going to change that. He would have to win races like the Whitney, Woodward, Jockey Club Gold Cup and, maybe, the BC Polytrack Classic, to seriously change that. And even then I don't know how sexy he will ever be.

I guess that is why I'd like to see them have some fun with it. Seek out the best races and don't worry about surfaces. |
