As a horseplayer, any time SA can put 12 horses in the gate, for any race, it is a good thing.

If I was thinking the older division was suspect, I might give a long look at the Euro entrant, Dansant, whose trainer says is the best poly track horse in England

This is the early nominee for grass race of the year. I doubt we'll see a better field of grass horses in any of the major races this year. Well, except for the BC Classic.
