Premium Tap to Classic?
Bloodstock Journal writes:
"Woodward S. (G1) winner PREMIUM TAP (Pleasant Tap) blazed in a bullet :59 4/5, fastest of 77 at the distance, as he gears up for the Classic. " I thought he was doubtful for the Classic. Has anyone seen another mention of him aiming at the Classic? --Dunbar

Dunbar: I too thought he was doubtful, but apparently he's flying.

I heard Desormeaux ( seriously ) was working him the other morning.
Between the owner and trainer....how do they allow this guy near the horse after Turfway? It's amazing.

Ya know, in a low point of my Saratoga experience, I was having a drink at the Wine Bar and Chantal, Mikey and Kent were seated at a table right behind me. I guess Chantal must have been giving out riding tips. I ran before the bullets started flying.

Steve Haskin's column today also assumes that Premium Tap is going to the Classic:
http://www.ntra.com/content.aspx?type=news&id=21030 Haskin likes Premium Tap as a live longshot. Me, too, which is why I'm trying to confirm that he's entering. --Dunbar

I love that stat on Jockey Club Gold Cup winners and the Classic. I mentioned that last year and was laughed at on ESPN. Obviously Bernardini and Borrego are different animals, but still, Borrego's last prep looked even more effortless against a far superior field last year than Bernardini did this year. Just throwing that out there.

I still don't understand why Premium Tap doesn't show up as 'nominated' if he is indeed going to enter. Invasor shows up now that he was a late nomination. So does Bordonaro. It's going to cost a whole bunch more to run him supplemented than if they'd nominate him. --Dunbar
