As you repped...Rachel is one and done every year and ole Jess is never going to see the Mdn Spl that his Curlin/ Rachel makes...Unfortunately... How doesn't winning the Travers make a stallion? Did the Haskell make Munnings?

It doesnt hurt but it wont "make" him as Assmussen has implied. I wasnt commenting on the horse other than as a stallion prospect. I would run him there too but winning the Travers didnt do much for Deputy Commander, Ten Most Wanted, Wills Way, etc.
