They have plenty of options now but given the Bromans are so involved in NY breeding this spot made sense. You're not going to get a much easier spot for 200k. They can think about the Clark or Cigar Mile and have a relatively fresh horse for Gulfstream and what should be a DISASTROUS handicap division next year if Lookin at Lucky is retired.
