Only if I took the bait and followed you down the rabbit hole.
I never said the Met Mile wouldn't be a valid spot for Forte. But you took great pains to point out why the Woody Stephens was a terrible idea.
I simply refuted that.

Long story short, I think Forte's connections have more to gain giving the Met Mile a try, it'd be great for the fans & I think he'd be competitive. I'd like to think those are enough reasons to want to give a race a try if he's healthy & ready to rock.

Personally, I think he should target the Hollywood Gold Cup. Would probably have all expenses paid to ship out there, would give him a crack at 10 furlongs, is a weak race year in year out, I presume would get a weight break, and Pletcher has already had success in the shipping in for that race.
