I think it’s a great idea... I wonder if Churchill will write a race for June to bridge the gap to the Haskell and Travers. In any case, I guess what will happen is that trainers will aim their colts to be at their best in the SA Derby and other races rather than trying to build them to a peak...Keeping these horses at a peak for an entire year is not going to be easy.

Can't find a link at the moment, but I read somewhere this morning that Oaklawn is not letting jockeys that rode at fairgrounds to race for 2 weeks. Santana is off his mounts for today. Meanwhile, Talamo is still free to ride.

Santana is in quarantine for 12 days because he rode at Fairgrounds...OP is only doing this for riders coming from Louisiana

But not riders that came in contact with someone that tested positive.

What planet are they on?

That's what I was trying to say.

Wells Bayou going? Race spacing should be what the connections had planned.

It also seems strange that Oaklawn is letting horses from Fairgrounds ship in and race. Some were in New Orleans just a week ago. Doesn't seem like the smartest idea.
