OK, last time . . . it's not about the money. The connections have more money than Fort Knox . . . it's about prestige, history and more than anything taking the right path for the horse and the fans.
Forget about the purses and money. That said, Travers and BC Classic get ready.

Bloodhorse | Zayat: American Pharoah to Run in Travers
ETA: Ugh. The headline is misleading. No commitment to Travers as yet.

I heard that Del Mar is talking about the possibility of delaying the Pacific Classic for a week if AP will run. That would give him 4 weeks instead of 3. I don't know if that would make the connections of AP reconsider, but I guess Del Mar thinks it's worth a try.

Listening to comments from Baffert it doesn't sound like he is in love with the new surface.
