Speaking of his next race/s, is it even possible that he could race in the Arc then the BC given they are just over 1 month apart?
Im assuming you have to make a decision about backing him in only one, anyone think otherwise? |

Plenty of horses run on Arc weekend and the Breeders Cup
especially now the BC is on the first Saturday of November. Goldikova last year was one. No problem at all running in both. Some trainers - Andre Fabre is one - feel it is too tough for 3 yo's to run in both but for the most part plenty of horses run at both meetings. |

Somebdy was trying to lay SYT at 34.0 for the BCC today. Surely the BCC has to be the target. A decent run on dirt would greatly increase the value of both SYT & his sire High Chaparral. All this talk re the Cox Plate & quarantine issues seems like a smokescreen. This appears to be the weakest year for US dirt horses in living memory especially now that Animal Kingdom is injured. European trainers will never get a better chance to win one of the world's premier races on the Churchill Downs dirt. They have won the race twice at Santa Anita - one of dirt, the other on synthetic - but winning at CD would be the ultimate victory for increasing the value of their horses as stallions. |

Im not confident seeing him blow right out in betting, somebody knows something, hes not going to the BC surely, why else would he be $34?
Makes no sense unless some American has NFI whats going on, which lets face it many of them dont! |
