9/27: JCGC-Bowl-Hirsch Invites show promise..

[lemoncrush]

and I believe Santa Anita has 6 grade 1 races on the same day.

It will be a welcome change from the usual post-Saratoga and Del Mar lull during September.

I'm amped for JCGC day. Likely to be my last day at the track this year, and should be a great day of racing. Hope the weather cooperates.

Sounds like he prepped perfectly for the Brooklyn (or is that back to 1 1/2 miles to the sudden resurgence of stamina in the breed?).

Thanks.

Thanks.

They ran the Brooklyn, at 1 1/2 miles, on Belmont Day.

Oh.

I wonder how NYRA's going to fill that hole in the Fall stakes schedule now.

No race for older horses 8 days prior to the Jockey Club Gold Cup?

I might make it out there as well. Who's up for a bike ride from Brooklyn?
