Less than 3 weeks ago, Knicks Go was pointing for the Sexton Mile at Lone Star Park because Cox says he feels the horse is "better around two-turns" and it was a "great race" to start back from his middle eastern debacle.
Now suddenly he's good to go in a Grade 1 around one-turn because Charlatan is out. What a competitor...
Of course, even the Charlatan excuse might be BS (since he was already out before it was revealed he had been turned out with Baffert having been banned by NYRA).
The Sexton Mile drew the Grade 2 win machine By My Standards and top rated sprinter C Z Rocket.
