I'm kind of surprised City of Light is in the Forego and not waiting for the Woodward. While he's a Grade 1 winner twice over at 7 furlongs, it seems a Grade 1 win around two turns would be better for his stallion resume. Plus the sprint race is competitive while the Woodward threatens to feature the Calumet entry of Hence and Term of Art as the headliners (one is coming from I think Albuquerque and the other from West Virginia). Of course, a win Saturday might be enough to net him an Eclipse as champion sprinter.
In fantasy land, I would like to think that City of Light will run in both the Forego and the Woodward (you know, like Forego himself might have done), but he's not nominated to the latter and this is 2018.
