Bernardini is a very, very special horse. I can't believe the connections want to run the talented George against him instead of in the mile. That must have been one heck of a workout on the dirt that he had...

There is nothing to be gained by winning the mile. I am sure the Coolmore-Darley rivalry has a little to do with it too.
The dirt workout had nothing to do with it. They were going with him once Dylan Thomas didn't handle it. Sounds like they were going to have a BCC horse no matter what.
