DRF writers...what short memories...

In an article about Bago, the Arc winner...

PARIS, France - Bago could become the first winner of the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe to test his mettle in the Breeders' Cup Classic.

Uhh...if by test you mean win, yes. If by test you mean run, no way. Sakhee just missed in '01.

Does anyone here think he can handle the switch and bail this writer out of the "Corrections" category? Personally, I don't think he can. He barely won after sitting off of a sizzling pace for most of the way, and I think he'll be overbet.

I agree. I was hoping North Light would go in the Turf but he isn't listed in any of the futures. Bago's connections have said they've been pointing for the BC Classic all along, but if that was the case, you'd think they'd have come over here to prep on dirt to see if he could handle it. I don't know how much one can gain by galloping over that Polytrack stuff.
