Well Freddy, not to dispel your view, but Rampillion got a 56 Beyer for Tuesday's effort. You'll be singing a different tune when your New York bred hits the track though, because by way of comparison, here's what the 56 Beyer gets at Belmont Park.. without slots:

6/19: MDN CLM ($16k CLM PRICE) -- EASTERN PRIME 54 BSF ($15k purse)

6/20: NYB-MSW -- HOLD THE CRUISER 54 BSF ($41k purse)

6/21: NYB-MSW -- KITTY WISH 56 BSF ($42k purse)

So even though your New York bred may be as slow and pathetic as Rampillion, my guess is you'll put that same $30,000-$50,000 into her or him and run through conditions in NYB company. Just a hunch. Even though she'll be facing similar vermin to that which Rampillion faced. But it will be OK because it won't be slot money fueling the purses.. just NY taxpayer dollars funneled into the state bred development fund. Totally different scenario..
