I believe the Hawthorne race would stick him with too much weight.
It would for 3 year old's and up and they never get a horse that is worth Graded Stakes competition. I seriously think they might consider it

Sounds like they are going straight to the Breeders Cup.

Ian says they are going to the HGC, The JCGC or maybe the Turfway race

A polytrack race at Turfway wouldn't surprise me. They liked prepping on it for the Derby. I did read they might train up to the BCC though, but that was before the race today. I really doubt they go to the JCGC though.

From DRF.com
Nafzger said Street Sense would soon ship back to Louisville and target the $5 million Breeders' Cup Classic at Monmouth Park on Oct. 27. Nafzger mentioned four possible races as preps - the Massachusetts Handicap on Sept. 22; the Kentucky Cup Classic at Turfway Park or the Hawthorne Gold Cup on Sept. 29; or the Jockey Club Gold Cup at Belmont on Sept. 30.

I doubt he goes to the Mass Cap or the JCGC at Belmont. Both Turfway and Hawthorne are gonna recruit the hell out of him and my guess is that Tafel wants Chicago fans to get a taste.

The more I think about it the more I think you are right. Chicago makes sense.
