Motion was quoted as saying he didn't want to "waste her season" by running on the dirt and then having her not handle the surface.
You know, because if you lose the BC, they take away all your other victories from earlier in the year.
Of course, ending the campaign of a Grade 2 miler in a long-distance Grade 1 is perfectly logical. Would she even be in the BC had she not won the Spinster on the Polytrack?
