Mother Goose

Have to agree with Andy that it's sad to see Mother Goose a Gr II now. As he said, if you look at the past history, It's always been a premier race.

The reconfiguration of the days and schedules have shuffled things, but it is not all bad. The Belmont Stakes weekend was superb. It's different and change is always accompanied with some trial and error.

Plus, you have other tracks competing and horses can ship large distances fairly easily now.

Would really like to see it back as a Gr I. Think they pulled the trigger too quick on this one. Looked to me like a Gr I performance today. Super impressive.
