It's obvious they want no part of the BC with DC, and I'm not sold on him getting 1 1/4. That being said, he'll probably win the Cigar Mile, go to Dubai, win the Dubai World Cup, and retire eventually, after some teases that he'll run here. I highly doubt we ever see him on the turf, because there is no reason to run him on it.
I agree. I will say this however, it would not shock me if this horse has been on the turf. Not that it would mean anything whatsoever of course. I would like to see them stick with the plan, bring him back next year and I very much hope he comes back sound, healthy, etc. If he does we might be in for something very special.
