How has he faired on the slop in the past?

i think he only ran once prior in the slop at AP back in fall of 06 and he was third losing to Officer Rocket. Not sure if he ran any other times in the slop. Hopefully it won't rain and he will run for all the fans at the Spa.

I was referencing that if SS scratched from the Jim Dandy he would most likely would go into the Haskell against Curlin.

but yeah I was reading between his lines too. He won't race, I hope I'm wrong but he pull the usually trainer BS after the Haskell, " I just don't think 3 weeks is enough time" It's just such BS. It's all about the BCClassic, I understand that but come on race the guys, it's great for the sport. If it's not enough time to get prepared then what is the TC all about between races. I love and HATE The Breeders Cup.
