The late report of Recapture the Glory's nomination may just be an oversight. His name may not have been on the press release from last wek, by accident. I doubt that he was nominated after the cutoff.

That's possible Linny, but you'd think one of Recapture the Glory's connections would have noticed that the horse was not listed among the supplementals and quickly notified the TC honchos. Five days is a pretty long delay in getting it corrected.
