I remember questioning Pletcher putting Friendly Island in the BC Sprint after what I thought was a grasping-for-straws placement in a turf stakes the start before. I don't question TP decisions anymore...ever.

If she was in it , it wouldn't be a soft spot for the rest of them. They want the Alabama . The road there is the mystery trip that starts Sunday with a detour onto the lawn for no reason

"Praying"? Because Pletcher isn't aware of her pedigree you mean? I'm sure he's unaware that she's out of a Scat Daddy mare that herself is out of a MG2P (multiple Group 2 placed) Danehill Dancer mare..

oh there is that? LOL The Mo's have been fine on turf in limited chances to boot. To be fair I think if Acorn wasnt loaded they would have tried that but how the heck do I or we really know. I thought she ran ok from a tough post
