Like PA, I'm surprised we don't hear Frankel get more crap about basically ignoring GZ while Empire Maker was running.

[PaceAdvantage]

He kept him SPRINTING until two months ago!!!

This is a hall of fame trainer. How does something like this happen?

Cigar on the turf, then switched to dirt, I can understand. But sprint to route is a no brainer.

[ceejay]

Have they made a decision on "retirement" or running as a 5yo next year for GZ?

[Valuist]

Maybe he didn't develop as fast as Empire Maker. I remember seeing him lose a race to Valid Video last year. I would think that Frankel worked him and Empire Maker in company at some point in 2002 or 2003.

Stronach said GZ will run as a 5yo.

Maybe the "Azeri" effect is rubbing off on others....lol

I just hope that they keep him away from Dubai!

The plan is he will race, and he will race ONLY in the US of A. Good news for fans for sure. I think they have a New York only campaign mapped out since the BC will be run there, but I don't know that for sure.

[Zaf]

CJ,

Thats what it sounds like. Frankel was on Roger Stein last Sunday. He'll take the winter off and reappear next summer and probably point to the classic again.

What was Azeri's Beyer?

[Zaf]

Probably around a 106 (guestimate), probably good enough to win the Distaff for sure.

[Speed Figure]

Her beyer was 109.

I was hoping Azeri would go in the Distaff so I could get a better price on Ashado. In hindsight, my better price would have been $0.00...nice call Paulson :D
