I guess second place finisher, the mighty Mending Fences, must be the early US favorite for the BC Mile.
Am I agreeing with cynical Andy? What is this world coming to?...No offense Kev and the rest, but the record means nothing here. Not only do you need to handtime GP races, but since they redesigned the track and kept the turf rock hard, the times have been ridiculous. Horses running 8.5 on the turf in 1:39 in change were getting like 100 Beyers and nothing more....It was a useful comeback, but this is not a situation where people should be jumping up and down over the record. And I'm not taking a shot at the horse here who shows up everytime and is a great animal.
