From DRF
Spirit One and Casino Drive are the latest foreigners headed to Santa Anita for America's richest prize, the $5 million Breeders' Cup Classic.

The NYRA racing office was sure Spirit One has going to the JCGC. I guess they were wrong

You may be right, but why are those races mutually exclusive?

It really sucks when a trainer wants to act in the best interest of the horse.

Listen, if all you need is a table at Suffolk Saturday, just call my friend Sam Elliot.

Is it in the best interest in the horse to run on a speed favoring track against a horse that beat Attire twice at 12f as the only real speed in the race?

Is Monmouth necessarily speed favoring?

Who is in the Suffolk race besides Commentator?
