yeah
their definently taking their shots with surf cat today and some may say why not? but i say what for? he's the only 3yo in there and i think he's going to need a little more seasoning to get a mile and a 1/4 with these proven elders today. if the race were for 3yo's only then i'd say yeah he can probably go ahead and get the mile 1/4 because theres not many 3yo's with lesser class that would be able to stand out against him at this distance. he's certainly not the class of this field at this distance.
this race will certainly season and acclimate him to the more rigid distance and class levels he'll be facing in the future aka when d wayne got charismatic seasoned, acclimated and beat at the mile and a quarter distance which happend to be the race before he won the KD and the preakness.
it might be a pretty smart move as iam sure they have a few more races picked out with 4 more months left in his 3yo racing season as iam sure their definently thinking of a spot in the breeders cup.
maybe i spoke to soon when i said the connections must be drunk but to win this race today it just aint going to happen. give em maybe 5th today but not much more then that.
